When the daylight weighs a tone

And all my friends are gone,

There's rust around the things I love.

When it's fraying at the seams

Of reality and dreams,

All those dreams are quiet and dull

This life's alright, but it's not enough,

I'm looking for a quick exit. Like a prisoner on the run

This life's alright, but it's not enough,

I'm looking for a quick exit. Like a prisoner on the run

Big town break down, look how the stars come out

Big town break down, why didn't you just shout,

I'm lonely when I'm looking for a place to go,

Where everythings an embrace and everybody wants to know.

I'm your absent valentine, I'm the pigtails in the bride,

I'm the still that calms the toes in your bathtub

I'm the lynch mob in the dark, I'm the silkworm in your heart,

Spinning out my perfect circle

This life's alright, but it's not enough,

I'm looking for a quick exit. Like a prisoner on the run

This life's alright, but it's not enough,

I'm looking for a quick exit. Like a prisoner on the run

Big town break down, look how the stars come out

Big town break down, why didn't you just shout,

I'm lonely when I'm looking for a place to go,

Where everythings an embrace and everybody wants to know.

I'm on the water, fetch your brother, fetch your daughter.

Come come on down, fetch your sister, fetch your son.

I'm on the water, fetch your brother, fetch your daughter.(This life's alright, but it's

not enough,
