lyrics

Four in the morning
Air starts to move
Old leaves turn over
Finding new grooves
In old cracks on old streets
It’s always the same
You tell me the words
You gave me my name

These bricks need mending
My grass goes untrimmed
This shit’s so broken
That I can’t even begin
To tell her I love her
Like you think that I do
For you it’s so simple
But her shit’s broken, too

Why do you look down
When you fill my cup?
If you give me strength
Then why can’t you help me up?

I’ve found a new lover
I’ve got a new friend
This one is for real
So you cannot pretend

That it hasn’t been easy
To get over you
But with you I’m dead
So what else could I do?

Why do you look down
When you fill my cup?
If you give me strength
Then why can’t you help me up?

You like to hear praise
Like to hear you are
You’ve held me too close
And I want to be far
From the beating of drums
There’s enough in my head
Now I need to forget
Every word that you said

Why do you look down?
Send out your light
Send out your truth
Lead me out of the night
Why do you look down
When you fill my cup?
If you give me strength
Then why can’t you help me up?
