You’ve sirened your pride in with banners flying the nation
And they all read “come see about me”
We both bend in strong winds
But it seems we all can’t fend the break
So stay brave if your arbors fall
You’re under lock and key and I could break in but I’ve never been a thief
All done with this old place, with the romance of sunlight on your face
And friendships too much like disease
Dear sovereign, I’m thinking that passion left town when your heart did
(You’re at it again)
But you used to bеat the bright out of the sky
You steal mеaning from seasons, break silence like a bone of mine. Come closer, or don’t come at all
You’re under lock and key and I could break in
But I’ve never been a thief
And they all read “come see about me”
We both bend in strong winds
But it seems we all can’t fend the break
So stay brave if your arbors fall
You’re under lock and key and I could break in but I’ve never been a thief
All done with this old place, with the romance of sunlight on your face
And friendships too much like disease
Dear sovereign, I’m thinking that passion left town when your heart did
(You’re at it again)
But you used to bеat the bright out of the sky
You steal mеaning from seasons, break silence like a bone of mine. Come closer, or don’t come at all
You’re under lock and key and I could break in
But I’ve never been a thief
