20th Century Towers Lyrics

20th Century Towers lyrics



We'll correct collegiate mistakes,

A shower of formal ideals,

Completely soused, The hearts on our sleeves,

As they drowned we could hear them screaming,

"Oh what a tragic way to see our final days."



I attempt to talk up the town:

"The answers are in the arches of the 20th Century Towers and in

comfortable cars in motion."



And yet it still remains, this incessant refrain:

"You're just like the rest. Your restlessness

makes you lazy."



Keeping busy is just wasting time and I've wasted what little he gave me.

(All Around) I know the conscious choice was crystal clear,

too clear the slate of former years:

When I sang softly in your ear and tied these arms around you.
