Pavement by Veridian Lyrics

Lie down in the road
We admire these street lights
That wash out the stars
Free taxi to heaven
From the grace of a stranger
In their passing car
Touch my pulse
And feel the violence
Where the calm once was and
Stretch out my eyes
For the first time

You always say you’ve had enough
That I always drink too much
But I have no will
And there’s no way
I’m ever gonna change

With nowhere to go
We parade down the street
Shut all windows and doors
So we feel at home
When we lock
When we shut
Out the silent peaceful
I don’t feel cold
But my hairs stand on end
To keep me warm and
Open my mind for the first time
You always say you’ve had enough
That I always drink too much
I’m on my own
I’ve lost my way
I need you to come make everything okay
I have no will
And there’s no way
I’m ever gonna change

Touch my pulse
And feel the violence
Where the calm once was and
Stretch out my eyes
For the first time
