David And The Citizens Long Days Lyrics

Long Days Lyrics

There are two ways of doing this

one is easy and one is complicated

and it's up to me to pick one, now

and I don't think I'll pick the easy one

of all these short-life plans they're building here

there's not a single one you should pay attention to

they only do it 'cos it looks so fucking good

when they show it on the news



you get long days of belly-ache, that's you inside of her

you get a wire under the ocean to connect and talk to me

-Long days of belly-ache



A million things that I should do

but I tell you all it's like I'm glued to this chair

November passed just like that

November passed just like that

and I consider these options again

all you Mr. Suit-gentlemen

come bury me with bullshit, please

I know exactly how it feels



you get long days of belly-ache, that's me inside of her

you get a wire across the sky to carry my love

long days of absolutely nothing at all...



so go ahead, tell me I'm stupid

never ever been a sunbeam

I want to scream until my lounges bleed

I want to scream until I can't speak

so go on, dig your thumbs in

take a bite of me

take another bite of me



and give me long days of belly-ache,

that's you inside of me

you get a wire across the sky

to carry all the love you need

long days of absolutely nothing,

nothing at all

long days of belly-ache
