Evidence

There is life here, it is dawn in the city
And boiler smoke dances so pretty
With the freezing air as people wake
It's far too early and hard to take

The bells, they ring so gallantly
To the bleakest sunrise ever seen
As the sun, it battles with the fumes
To only rise and breach the clouds

While you dance through sun and mountains
But you never warn me of your outings
You just send your evidence back
I cannot take this kind of pain
I am just trying not to lose this game
But you just send your evidence back

Staring o'er the fence
Into the field of all my past desires
I feel the warmth, a distant heat
Still beautiful like bales on fire

I see the kids, the sparks they fly
And singe their thrift shop clothes and smiles
You children keep it, have your fun
I turn and wander slow for miles

While you dance through sun and mountains
But you never warn me of your outings
You just send your evidence back
I cannot take this kind of pain
I am just trying not to lose this game
But you just send your evidence back
