A flash of light
A wall to slide
A rush of gold
A big hello
A mom,
a dad
A home
to have
Somewhere to run when the rain gets bad
A sun,
a moon My own bedroom
You won't believe it but I'm telling you kids Yeah,
there's much more to life than this
First steps,
first word First curse you heard
First lie you crossed First thought you lost
You laugh, you cry You live,
you die and you die and you die
All in the name of a girl you like Come on,
she says, come round
Get up, she says, get out
I know it's tricky when it spins and it twists
But there's much more to life than this
Nice shirt,
nice tie Nice nine to five
Nice docile rage Nice steady wage
It's pills,
it's booze It's casual drug abuse
All to forget you were someone who had dreams to die
In retreat with your hair light
I've never seen it but I know it exists
Yeah, there's much more to life than this
Somewhere she runs when the rain gets bad
Go home,
she bares Go home,
she bares
They never tell you when you're thrown in a drift Yeah,
there's much more to life than
this The couch and me
Spaceports and TV
She calls to speak
That's enough
for me
Come home now Come home
Come home now
Come home now
