Belvedere Slaves To The Pavement Lyrics

Slaves To The Pavement Lyrics

Distractions from the ordinary

Real life just not good enough

Explanations hard to come by

Living life outside the institutions

Waking in awkward situations

I wouldn't have it any other way



I can't recall a better time

Each day felt like the next would never come

I realise I couldn't get enough

Alternatives all felt like death

I wish I could safely say

All the right decisions were always made

Yeah, we were young but we're still here

Happy to starve for another year



It seems so right for one to assume

That whatwe are is what we see

What we buy, who we do

I would've ended up that way, if not for those miles

Those endless days

I know it's not for everyone

Empty halls, empty stomachs, empty hopes

In retroscpect we had it all



We didn't choose this life, this life chose us long ago

A web of friends and moments impossible to let go

Though we surrendered what others want to treasure

We ended up with so much more



We didn't choose this life, this life chose us long ago

A web of friends and moments impossible to let go

Though we surrendered what others want to treasure



We ended up with so much more
