Make a Sail
We fight against the odds
And you're too young to lose
Oh, I'm here for you
We race against the clocks
You're burning like a fuse
Oh, what can I do?
And just to let you feel the rain
On your body once again
Let's make a sail
Out of these bed sheets
And role down the corridors
And out on the streets
Let's carve a wave
Into this concrete
And role down the corridors
And out on the streets
We lay before the jaws
Of hunger setting in
Oh, time you greedy thing
We pray for good results
For the devil to give in
Oh, I hear the angels sing
And just to let you feel the rain
On your body once again
Let's make a sail
Out of these bed sheets
And role down the corridors
And out on the streets
Let's carve a wave
Into this concrete
And role down the corridors
And out
You say I should talk about
The things that you are missing out
You say I should talk about
The things that you are missing out
You say I should talk about
The things that you are missing out
I say "you will see for yourself"
You say I should fill you in
On everyone and everything
I say "you will see for yourself"
Let's make a sail
Out of these bed sheets
And role down the corridors
And out on the streets
Let's make a sail
Out of these bed sheets
And role down the corridors
And out on the streets
Let's carve a wave
Into this concrete
And role down the corridors
And out
You say I should talk about the things that you are missing out
You say I should talk about the things that you are missing out
You say I should talk about the things that you are missing out
And you're too young to lose
Oh, I'm here for you
We race against the clocks
You're burning like a fuse
Oh, what can I do?
And just to let you feel the rain
On your body once again
Let's make a sail
Out of these bed sheets
And role down the corridors
And out on the streets
Let's carve a wave
Into this concrete
And role down the corridors
And out on the streets
We lay before the jaws
Of hunger setting in
Oh, time you greedy thing
We pray for good results
For the devil to give in
Oh, I hear the angels sing
And just to let you feel the rain
On your body once again
Let's make a sail
Out of these bed sheets
And role down the corridors
And out on the streets
Let's carve a wave
Into this concrete
And role down the corridors
And out
You say I should talk about
The things that you are missing out
You say I should talk about
The things that you are missing out
You say I should talk about
The things that you are missing out
I say "you will see for yourself"
You say I should fill you in
On everyone and everything
I say "you will see for yourself"
Let's make a sail
Out of these bed sheets
And role down the corridors
And out on the streets
Let's make a sail
Out of these bed sheets
And role down the corridors
And out on the streets
Let's carve a wave
Into this concrete
And role down the corridors
And out
You say I should talk about the things that you are missing out
You say I should talk about the things that you are missing out
You say I should talk about the things that you are missing out
