Текст The Ballroom Thieves, Darlingside — Unlovely

I took the blue out of the news today
(Wore it like an overcoat)
I wrapped it around me
And it shields me from the thoughts
That people think they need to say

Standing in line for the riot
(Just another sunny day)
I found a couple birds who sing
Of tethered friends and broken wings

We waited…
(We waited, and waited, and waited, and waited)
So we got ourselves a figurehead
Unlovely

It’s a lie we have to listen to you
It’s a lie we have to listen to you
It’s a lie we have to listen to you
You’re out of time
Step out of line

Reading your mean eyes through a million little screens
Now we’re living in the house you built
The faucet leaks, the roof is caving in
All our troubles learned to stretch their limbs
Now they’re climbing up your gate
They’re running through your walls
Oh, don’t they whisper you to sleep?

It’s a lie we have to listen to you
It’s a lie we have to listen to you
Don’t you know, it’s a lie we have to listen to you?
You’re out of time
You’re out of time
You’re out of time
Step out of line

I wore it like an overcoat
Though it was just another sunny day
We waited
Now bye bye babies, bye bye
