Slow
I'm gonna settle down slow
Down to the hum of electric life and soul
Faith
In my hand to trade
But for the word and
The light of a bitter saint
And you can get me work?
But I can't work for free
I've got a room downtown
With a bed and a big TV
If you can raise a star
From garbage on the street
Then you can make a modern life
For a modern girl to lead
Alone, I feel alone
When I'm living in a buildind
Like a tooth at heaven's throat
True, it's a beautiful view
But you know they're gonna set it on fire
When they feel like something new
But why can't anything be real?
Emotion like the movies feel...
A pill to break the drone of reverie...
So bring me to the hand of fate
The river or the new arcade
So I can wash the empty hour away
Cos I'm living in a room downtown
With a bed and a big TV
