Long Deadly Days



Verse 1



They come up to me and strike me downwards with your thoughts I couldn't agree

Such words of decay they leave me lying in a sweat of failure sorts

I'm crying out but no-one hears



These crowds of the silence they don't know if I'm a man to trust or to throw

Don't enter the trap because they'll hold you to the end or shove you to go

I'm crying out but no-one hears



Chorus



Stay close to me and follow me all of these long deadly days

When I'm low and I'm in such a daze

Don't be sad when I look just a little bit through you

I don't know that I would be here if I couldn't be so close to you

And I'm scarred but you let me shine through

And I look at the world with a lop-sided grin when I see you



Verse 2



These people are lerts they will just pass us in a ship of ivory poached

Don't let this blow out or give you headaches in the bath it shouldn't be so

I'm crying out but no-one hears



Fight back it's a sham but just remember that you can use your legs and your vote

Clear mind is a prize not many people have it at the start of life on this land

I'm crying out but no-one hears



Chorus
