lyrics

Scrapped my knee on the concrete beach
Under ash tumbling out of iron pillars
Admired your hand against a bright pink sky
Took a deep breath in and coughed a little
Housing prices are astronomical
We’ll be in this apartment until we die
They got me up against a wall but
Down at city hall they're asking for a fight

I shouldn’t have opened that letter about my taxes
I should’ve just taped the mail slot shut
I hear a siren sailing through the maze of pavement
As I start to tear it up
You can’t get blood from a stone
And I’m as cold and grey as I can be
Imagining all the money saved by slashing cops salaries

Went for a walk down to the lake
To the east end of the beach
Let the pollution coming in with the tide
Really speak to me
Went down the Red Hill Valley trail
Watched the traffic jam up slowly
Recognized the fight for life
We’re mindlessly imposing

I shouldn’t have opened that letter about my taxes
I should’ve just taped the mail slot shut
I hear a siren sailing through the maze of pavement
As I start to tear it up
You can’t get blood from a stone
And I’m as cold and grey as I can be
Imagining all the money saved by slashing cops salaries
