Another day under a cold blue sky
We watch the world go round and pass us by
Call it what you want, I dream of better days
We'll live and die in these towns, so they say
But hold on, don't let it go to waste
You've been here so long that you're getting used to the taste
Don't fall, don't let it sour your face
Don't act so sick and tired
You'd sell your soul just to live your life in the sunshine
Just to live your life in the sunshine
Just to live your life in the sunshine
Just to live your life in the sunshine
You know I think it's time we said goodbye
We fall asleep at night and don't ask why
People live in lives in so much disarray
We'll live and die in these towns so they say
But hold on, don't let it go to waste
You've been here so long that you're getting used to the taste
Don't fall, don't let it sour your face
Don't act so sick and tired
You'd sell your soul just to live your life in the sunshine
Just to live your life in the sunshine
Just to live your life in the sunshine
Just to live your life in the sunshine
It's a tragedy
No more sympathy
Dig your grave and you can work into the cemetery
You're in agony
You're a casualty
One more step towards your personal catastrophe
Start a family
That's the policy
Get a job so you can buy yourself some property
Kill your fantasies
Dreams in atrophy
Let this city drag you downwards just like gravity
