Atlanta Lyrics by The Wave Pictures

City Forgiveness

0

I am a bumble bee buzzing around in the hive
I need some company, I am barely alive
I am a crooked stack of bones
I was born this way and I will die alone
The snow-covered mountain, the murder, the wedding gown
Were useful to me only as new words to write down
New words to write down
But in Atlanta in the shimmering rain
I was struck by a vision of your face again
The water running down the drain
These are the days that will drive me insane
There is so much pain outside these walls
Our parents are in hospital, our siblings are at war
No amount of tears could clean out my eyes
I am drinking my way back down to the floor
The wide Mississippi, the whisky, the Christian town
Were useful to me only as new words to write down
New words to write down
But in Atlanta in the shimmering rain
I was struck by a vision of your face again
The water running down the drain
These are the days that will drive me insane
But in Atlanta in the shimmering rain
I was struck by a vision of your face again
The water running down the drain
These are the days that will drive me insane
Atlanta, in the shimmering rain
I was struck by a vision of your face again
The water running down the drain
These are the days that will drive me insane
