If All My Days Go By

If you wanna go out
Hide your shoulders
From all the foolish shapes
That might give you away
We are guarded
By our own clarity
And the urgency is beating me

Now all my days go wandering by
There's a moment in the evening where we fortify
All my days go wondering by
we'd be near as wild as heaven in another life

All the usual tattoos
Without meaning
Devil horns and angel wings
Now the girl on the street
Keeps repeating
The earth is an orange with stone rings
And newspaper clippings
disquiet the night
Cry for mercy
Apostrophes of life
They've taken enough
Unresisted
now we're calling out their bluff
Take me as i show you how

Now all my days go wandering by
There's a moment in the evening where we fortify
All my days go wondering by
We'd be near as wild as heaven in another life

I stay out of the light
Hide my shoulders
And all my foolish shapes
That might give me away
I am guarded
From my own clarity
And the urgency is breathing in me now
