Another Souvenir Lyrics

Oh, and it all sinks down around us.
Oh, and I know I've been tied (?)
Oh, and it all sinks down all around us.

According to Black Park:
All Sinks In:
I've been turning a new direction
And polishing my reflection
To a dull glow something to show my friends for a while.

And I nod at torn and tattered,
'cos my conscience is badly battered.
And it screams,
"This time." Well, this time I am sure.

Now I recognize the classic signs of this unkind disease.
Be advised, please realize that it all sinks in on us sometime.
And it all sinks down all around us.

I went wandering out this morning
As the soup kitchen lines were forming,
And the no choice, lend-us-your-noise parade was in town.
So I turned around, and tunnelled in,
And dared myself to breathe.

And I'm seeing things that I don't want to believe,
And it all sinks in on us sometime.
And it all sinks down all around us.
I'll pick one up and look around, maybe I'll meet you down...

Yeah we watch you stir around and it keeps us busy.
Always willing to take the time so it won't just waste away.
And it's tearing you apart, we'll watch the peices scatter.
Pick one up and poke around for another souvenir.

Yeah we watch you stir around and it keeps us busy.
Always willing to take the time 'cause it tends to waste away.
And it's tearing you apart, watch the peices scatter.
Pick one up and look around for another souvenir.

I see you down in the back of the bar, accompanied and comforted.
