about

Track 10 of Black Sky Thinking

lyrics

One day I will escape from this cold world
Get out of here far from all of these fools cos everyone’s stupid
And I don’t like them.
Somewhere, free from the cliques and corruption
Free from the politics and the lies that they spew from
Behind crossed fingers
Queen bees, sidekicks and parasite flunkies
Wearing their colours with pride. When they’re mad, I’ll get even
Because you’ll be standing by my side
Sweet jesus, open the blinds let the sun in
See how they run
One day, I will escape from this cold world
Wave my goodbyes
And promise that I’ll write
And walk away with you forever
Cross my fingers and hope that that day is coming soon
Until then please answer your phone
I’m all alone.
