lyrics

The city sings the saddest tune merging sounds through a tube,
A tune of sorts, a sort of truce, swallowing a bitter pill,
Everyone calling it off, a coup.
I see a man in front of me. He doesn't hear. He doesn't see.
He plays a pretty melody and sings in harmony,
Noisily telling us of his love, and it's all about you.

Whether its the saddest song with people all singing along,
I don't know why the words that fit into songs are true and all about you.
Whether its playing, or lies dressed up as the truth,
I don't know why they all know what's there between me and you.
All about you.

A dissonant story through verse and through poetry,
A cauldron of melody and words, a word symphony
Pulling out all of the stops, and rules.
My headphones are singing, stinging and ringing,
Changing my moods through rhymes and through tunes,
Hastening to warning me off the blues.
And they're all about you

Whether its playing, or lies dressed up as the truth,
I don't know why they all know what's there between me and you.
All about you.
Whether its the saddest song with people all singing along,
I don't know why the words that fit into songs are true and all about you.

Yes pull me out, tell me off, tell me what I should and shouldn't do
I don't know why the words that all fit into blues are true
