Weary of the Walls

from Goodbye Voyager by Subterraneans

/

lyrics

I know this pain, the fear and the doubt
They’re tattooed on the tears that we can’t get out
We lose the control you never needed to have
And cheers for just hanging around
I know when I hear the darkness start to speak
It reels off words that mean fuck all to anything
The mind closes down, the heart never sings
And love only works if you can let it in

I’m weary of the walls
Are you weary of the walls?

Are we weary of the walls? Are we tired of the scene?
Or are we right-thinking automatic self-centred shit machines?
Is love the answer or just part of the scam?
Am I just a sucker for a masterplan?
And I can love you ‘til the sky falls in
But you’ve got to love yourself just a bit
I will love you ‘til the world explodes
Love you from your head to your heart to your toes

I’m weary of the walls
Are you weary of the walls?

I’m weary of the walls
Are you weary of the walls?
I’m weary of the walls
Are you weary of the walls?
