Lyrics

  • The Wild Boys (45)

    The wild boys are calling
    On their way back from the fire
    In august moon's surrender to
    A dust cloud on the rise
    Wild boys fallen far from glory
    Reckless and so hungered
    On the razors edge you trail
    Because there's murder by the roadside
    In a sore afraid new world

    They tried to break us
    Looks like they'll try again

    Wild boys never lose it
    Wild boys never chose this way
    Wild boys never close your eyes
    Wild boys always shine

    You got sirens for a welcome
    There's bloodstain for your pain
    And your telephone been ringing while
    You're dancing in the rain
    Wild boys wonder where is glory
    Where is all you angels
    Now the figureheads have fell
    And lovers war with arrows over
    Secrets they could tell

    They tried to tame you
    Looks like they'll try again

    Wild boys never lose it
    Wild boys never chose this way
    Wild boys never close your eyes
    Wild boys always shine

  • [Verse 1]
    I shed my skin
    When the party was about to begin
    I'm light years away but I'm walking back tonight
    Of all nights
    When I should be feeling just right
    Don't want to be in public
    My head is full of chopstick
    I don't like it

    [Chorus]
    Something on my mind
    Breaking open doors I had sealed up before
    Something on my mind
    Makes me run when I thought I'd run too far

    [Verse 2]
    Somebody shaking my tree
    Maybe that somebody is me
    I'm standing in the light but
    I'm making a break for the shadows
    On the cinema wall
    They should be mine but I'm not that tall
    Now I'm saying this in private
    If I had a car I'd drive it
    Insane

    [Chorus]

    [Outro]
    I'm looking for cracks in the pavement
