The Grey Estates Lyrics

The Grey Estates lyrics

Darling please, let's get out of here

On a train to who knows where

I've got a feeling that I can't explain

We had to leave this place, we
won't go back again

Getting tired of landscapes, we're just floating

Rolling past the grey estates



Oh oh...

Oh oh!



What put the fire in his stomach out?

What moved its hands all across
your mouth?

Out through the window let the neon sing

In place of
telegraphs that don't mean a thing

And we crawled off to our
destination

Rolling past the grey estates



Oh oh

Oh
oh!



Rushing through

And your world, and your world, and your
world

It's just a minute away

Rushing through

And your world,
and your world, and your world

It's just a minute away



So
let the needle on the compass swing

Let the iron in your heart's blood
ring

Strike up the band as the ship goes down

And if it's loud
enough, they will erase the sound

Of one hundred thousand sad
inventions

Let them rot inside the grey estate



oh oh

oh oh!



Rushing through

And your world, and your world, and
your world

It's just a minute away

Rushing through

And your
world, and your world, and your world

It's just a minute away



I'm half awake and the world is ending

All across the border just a
minute away

I'm half awake and the world is ending

Across the
border just a minute, just a minute away
