Building for the Future Lyrics by Ballboy

All the Records on the Radio Are Shite

0

[Verse]
What are you gonna do
When everything you've known
Is wrong?
When everything you know
Is wrong?

And the stillness in your room
Is the stillness of your heart
And the sound of life outside
Takes you gradually apart
Is hard
When everything you've known
Is wrong

[Chorus]
And the drying of your eyes
Won't save you
The drying of your eyes
Won't save you
The drying of your eyes
Won't save you
This time

[Verse]
What are you gonna do
When everyone you know
Is lost?
And you are lost
And gone?

And you walk out in the streets
With heaven on your chest
And you cry about the boys
Whose hearts still haunt your bed
And it's hard
When everyone you know
Is gone

[Chorus]
And the stillness of the room
Won't save you
The stillness of the room
It won't save you
The stillness of the room
Won't save you
This time

[Chorus]
And the drying of your eyes
Won't save you
The drying of your eyes
Won't save you
The drying of your eyes
Won't save you
This time

[Chorus]
And the stillness of your heart
Won't save you
The stillness of your heart
It won't save you
The stillness of your heart
Won't save you
This time
This time
This time
This time
