blackmarket blues - real lies lyrics

i was up really late tonight
waiting for light to shadowbox
you wear it in your face. oh, you do
don’t say the end’s inside you now
each dawn, you seem new to me
blackmarket fresh starts
blackmarket blues
and i won’t rest till ghosts haunt every corner of this city, from the storm drains of brent to where we went to
start anew
you young bold shivering thing, with eyes only for yourself
but that’s ok, cos i still feel it too
rise up with the late tide
don’t let the night die on your watch
show me some other place
not solitude
cos they’d send me there for my mistakes, but they take years away, and all my nights were yesterday’s till i
met you
joyride for the bloodlines like you did when your romance was sprayed up on the motorway bridge
you left home with a warning: the kid that never came down, but you see more of the mornings than the wide
suburban skies of your hometown

there is nowhere i would rather be than over you
there’s no place that i could ever be
get through to you
going somewhere i’ve seen in my dreams… it’s falling away, when i need you the time keeps running away

and this is one for every old friend that i’ve lost, every girl i loved at school who got married to a ghost and
the absent sons and daughters who were waylaid on the road, with levonelle and the tears that fell cos
you’re scared of getting old
you are the opposite f-cking thing of a good reason to weep, you’re the future of a place you’ve only been to
in your sleep, you’re the church bells in the morning, when you’ve woken up cold, on the sofas you surrender
to when you’ve been out being bold
you are the 5am exodus
you’re the ‘have you got a light?’
you’re every new friendship that dies quickly in a fight
you are the prodigal son, hid in a phonebox from the rain
you’re in the shower mondays whispering ‘never again’
you are the one with eyes that look like kids lost down wells
you’re the last known secret, the friend that never tells
you are the straight-through crew, not the time-out crowd
i love my friends more dearly than i’m allowed to say aloud
