Текст песни: This Town Works Backwards + перевод

I saw lights, lights up ahead of me

Now I see you light up instead of me

Turn down, turn down the TV

Turn down and spurn your identity

Chalklines on the floor (I don’t see them)

Notes under the door (I don’t read them)

I burnt down the family business

Walked off into the distance

Gonna start a new life today

Gonna start a new life today

All of this was yours (I don’t want it)

All these shattered dreams (I can’t help it)

All, all through your childhood

You clung to nothing — nothing at all

Now, my stride is broken

Been through these motions

You sing;

No! No! I won’t go there!

Head in hands, the wreckage still smoking

The neighbours will not stop talking

Until the whole damn town knows

Until the whole damn town knows

Slurring wedding vows (you're out of focus)

Is no use to us now (We're out of focus)

3am — the subway’s freezing

Voices echo, billboards are bleeding

Left all possessions behind now

Left all possessions behind now

All of this was yours (I don’t want it)

All these shattered dreams (I can’t help it)

All, all through your childhood

You clung to nothing — nothing at all

Now, my stride is broken

Been through these motions

You sing;

No! No! I won’t go there!

All, all through your childhood

You clung to nothing — nothing at all

Now, my stride is broken

Been through these motions

You sing;

No! No! I won’t go there!

No! No! I won’t go there!

No! No! I won’t go there!

No! No! No! No! No! No! No!
