Lyrics
The fault lines on the freeway Fade out of view The pounding of a birds wings Black streaks the blue Whitecaps jump like static Flotsam scores the land Smokestacks cut like lumber Charcoal chalks the sand You can’t see through the shade For all the shadows Still you watch the parade Roll by from the shallows Tin clouds chipped and soldered Stone buoys light up the sky The air gets hotter and hotter And we lose track of time You can’t see through the shade For all the shadows Still you watch the parade Roll by from the shallows Its shades of grey Curl their way out of the bay Babe if you stayed Laid out and naked we’d watch All the stars in the southern cross Creep their way across the sky We’d spot the fifth if we squint our eyes Laid out naked we’d suss All the scars that shift between us Like the gla** at our feet I touch your hand and you’re drifting away from me I’d take your hand but you’re already out of reach Shades of grey Curl their way out of the bay The silhouette of the city Cupped into your hand You flip your lucky penny Just to watch it fall again You watch it fall
