i wander - real lies lyrics

in the days before the curfew came i wander, dissolute
through the pressure and the noise of this city we pollute
out into cherry blossom and the fresh*cut grass
faces in bay windows tapping at the glass
i feel the sting of springtime pollen when it hits
takes me back to summer mornings with that pill taste in my sinuses
it’s the easy magic of the a to b
it’s funny how it takes on a new poignancy
i drip in the thick wetness of the sights and sounds
call in at the crown, a little motown, where’s your lockdown now?
thе simple joys of getting out, doing the rounds
seeing streetlights shiver on in a new part of town

streets of sound of mind, i’ve gotta find, i wander
turning round to see no odyssey no longer

all the best ones sound like longing
that’s what she said
i can’t shift the noise of boys of summer from my head
now the city’s like a film set where they’ve upped and gone
the sirens sing their lonely karaoke songs
i push the blues down through my boots into the earth below
drumming up the ghosts i cherish most to dance the lonely roads
wanna wander through the bloodshot whites of hot*wired eyes
the shivering grey violence, uk friday nights

streets of sound of mind, i’ve gotta find, i wander
turning round to see no odyssey no longer

now it’s just me and my memories, city streets are empty
phantom frequency, fm md 20/20
faded flag up on a balcony in front of me
hanging out with only yesterdays for company
first*time callers reach an anxious pitch
queuing for a pack of matches as they’re scratching that blitz spirit itch
where’s your lockdown now?
where’s your lockdown now?
where’s your lockdown now?

streets of sound of mind, i gotta find, i wander
turning round to see no odyssey no longer

- real lies lyrics
