Songtext Someone else's town Josh Pyke

Someone else's town

I've been hanging 'round in someone else's town

And it's made me feel simplified

There's too much hanging around my neck

I'd have blown it all to keep you on the telephone

Though all the streets are cleaned of streaks

And tarnished not by memories

It makes me sad to feel the need

To live my life at such a great speed

And I would lay you down

And we'd watch the clouds
Roll over skies we wouldn't recognise

But instead there's flowers in the yard

Of someone else's house

I won't look in those windows

Though all the streets are cleaned of streaks

And tarnished not by memories

It makes me sad to feel the need

To live my life at such a great speed

And what we say today may

Not always carry water well

But I refuse to leap from vessels

Before they've even set sail

Don't aim for the horizon

It's only an illusion

Leading you back where you started from

And there's not time to fuck around for too long

And this could come undone

But only a fool enters agreements

Thinking they were wrong

So I would lay you down

And we'd watch the stars come out

And blur our eyes at the distance

And what we say today may

Not always carry water well

But I refuse to leap from vessels

Before they've even set sail

Don't aim for the horizon

It's only an illusion

Leading you back where you started from

And there's not time to fuck around for too long

No, there's no time to fuck around for too long
