Cut and paste these highways
Cut along the dotted line
Your scissors don´t seem to be working
Darling and I´d lend you mine
But my blades are dull and rusty
I can hardly get them closed
But i´m as open as a book
I´ll tell you all you need to know
About the city sinking under
And where we´re gonna be
How everyone is planning
And everyone you see
About the conspiracy against me
How the world is gonna end
I´m not sure just how it finishes
But I know how it begins
All I want is for you to find somewhere to be
Somewhere´s very vague
No particular place
As long as you´re with me
The cracks along these sidewalks
Are like the cracks inside our minds
Mind your mother and your father
For you´ll bury them in time
The coffin´s being lowered
Like a seed into the ground
But then new life springs up around us
Take a breath and look around
Children play
People say
They don´t know what they´ve got
They forget how to live
Now they´re old and they never did
And they´re happy having not
All I want is for you to find somewhere to be
Somewhere´s very vague
No particular place
As long as you´re with me
With me
So the ceiling´s falling down now
And I´m lying in my bed
And I´m turning over everything
I wish I would have said
Yesterday slipped away
All I can say is catch today
So you go to and fro waiting for a sign
You fail to see you can be wasting all your time
All I want is for you to find somewhere to be
Somewhere´s very vague
No particular place
As long as you´re happy
