Trapped Sunlight
The hills in the distance seem so near
It takes more than a lifetime to get there from here
Life here is slow – speed never pays
Not in the heart of the city anyway
Windowpanes shine in the night
All you see is trapped sunlight
You get caught in a trap when you follow the sun
There's a trap in this city for everyone
Come come, get a grip
On the hole in your heart
Come come, try to rip it out & tear it apart
Pick up the pieces, hang them high on the flagpole
Come & get rid of that hole
Craze on the freeway – calm in the ditch
Scars on your shins they begin to itch
Blind in the sun, you're blind as a mole
Though you need all that sun to fill up that hole
It takes more than a lifetime to get there from here
Life here is slow – speed never pays
Not in the heart of the city anyway
Windowpanes shine in the night
All you see is trapped sunlight
You get caught in a trap when you follow the sun
There's a trap in this city for everyone
Come come, get a grip
On the hole in your heart
Come come, try to rip it out & tear it apart
Pick up the pieces, hang them high on the flagpole
Come & get rid of that hole
Craze on the freeway – calm in the ditch
Scars on your shins they begin to itch
Blind in the sun, you're blind as a mole
Though you need all that sun to fill up that hole
