Embrace - Refugees Lyrics
The snow on the screen we're going light speed tonightLike Bonnie & Clyde except we don't die tonightAnd the blister packs coats and crumpled up notes appearIt's a break from the swill, the piss they distill around hereA break from the swill, the piss they distill around here...Lift off of this MetropolisWhen this town comes down,I wish I wishMy first degree emergencyIs kettled by your cavalry,I wish I wishThe cash machine queens when ambulance teams arriveIn their skeletal jeans they take Refugees for wivesWhen their collars get felt their glorified belts won't keep 'em warmAnd we'll run up the strand, your wrist in my handWe know we're bornYeah I know, I'm bornYeah I know I'm bornLift off of this MetropolisWhen this town comes down,I wish I wishMy first degree emergencyIs kettled by your cavalry,And when all of your friends are my enemiesWishing me gone as I'm running awayAnd my only defence is the worst of meOut in the open for all to surveyWhen you settle for less than I promised youKnowing that all of our barrels are scrapedIf it seems like it's harder to say to youIt's cause some things are just harder to sayLift off of this MetropolisWhen this town comes down,I wish I wishMy first degree emergencyIs kettled by your cavalry,I wish I wish
