Young Fathers - Paying lyrics
[Young Fathers - Paying lyrics]
Paying for the right to stay up in the light
The passion the passion the passion
Paying for the right to stay up in the light
Burning in the pit of the fire
Search lights scratch the wall
Wishing all the words that come to mind
Paying for the right to stay up in the light
Paying for the right to stay up in the light
Paying for the right to stay up in the light
Sparks fly in between
Gate crash the ivory tower
Lay back and join the flowers
The girls dance even in the last hour
Fever pitch
How did it come to this you’re an evangelist
Am I on the list? It’s unnatural
Sparks fly in between
Was allergic at the first instance
So I kept my distance the depth of the mind
The abandoned place
The locks and the briefcase
Finally determined that I’m gonna fight fair
The phantom and I both stare
Unblinking eyelids the double edge of profile
Soon to be senile
Become obese with all my affections
(screams of anger)
Sparks fly in between
Born is the king malnourished and thin
How can I start if I never begin
Born is the king malnourished and thin
Paying for the right to stay up in the light
Paying for the right to stay up in the light
Paying for the right to stay up in the light
Paying for the right to stay up in the light
Enile enile
Enile enile
