Talking Of Michelangelo
(专辑: Sirens And Condolences - 2004)
The
sidewalk's cracked and dirty face Is looking up from underneath my feet, It's staring at the
hallow, broken boy, Who's lost and wandering these city streets, And every night I
wander here alone, A
night that we won't meet. [Chorus] I
wonder when.. when I'll finally understand, Why time can wash away love like, It was made of sand, And it's wonderful The
pain that comes with regret, Sometimes you have to see the
beauty, In all of this loneliness. The
streetlights flicker, and they fade, Like every good intention that I've had, And every face that passes through my mind, And I'll be struggling with these same old dreams, Until the
concrete turns to sand, And I'm swept up by the
waves. [Chorus] There's only so many chances that you get to do, Something that's this important, Now I'd rather sink than swim. Sewer grates keep spitting up their steam, Exhaling all the
broken dreams I've flushed away. And I
wonder when, when I'll bow out, Wash me away like I
was made of sand, And it's wonderful, it's wonderful.
