the six a.m. subway leaves town
the tired faces don't look around
earphones plugged into the sound
a noise that eats up roads and towns
stop... and breathe again
and bleed... and bleed...
your eyes they don't shine
you're walking blind
I could walk away
should sleep all day (it's at your door)
in a cold blue sky
heard a stifled cry
have you heard
what the wind's blowin' 'round
the open hands we'll keep them closed
a cheerless sun will rise in desperation
any fool will tell you this
sure as gravity or like the morning paper
and they stop to breathe again
and bleed... and bleed...
your eyes they don't shine
you're walking blind
I could walk away
should sleep all day (it's at your door)
in a cold blue sky
heard a subtle cry
have you heard
what the wind's blowin' 'round
hey have you heard
what the wind's blowin' 'round
in a cold blue sky
heard a screaming cry
have you heard
what the wind's blowin' 'round
say have you heard
what the wind's blowin' 'round.
