lyrics

Then you said you would've been dead
Without that song
Turning up the volume
You stopped singing along
23, a cracked windshield
And the windows open

I was taking in the landscape
Making it my own
There's a future cure
For every possible future
I was innocent
And then I wasn't
An outcome meets its cause

There's no use in feeling misused
Who's keeping score?
All that window dressing
Drew the thieves to your door
Waking up from turbulence
In a thunderstorm
The first thing I remembered
Was your house disappearing In the rear-view mirror

They're handing out umbrellas
In the afternoon sun
It's the year of the elections
Coming to a conclusion
The Northern Atlantic
Is on my mind
If you feel hollow
There's a harbour up the coast
Where the waves will flood your soul

There's a future cure
For every possible future
I was innocent
And then I wasn't
An outcome meets its cause

So I grew tired
Of waiting around
For the siege to blow over I heard the loudest cries
From the ivory towers
Harmonising in choir
We blew a tire
And missed our flight
Found our way down to common ground
From E4 South
To the 101
Life's a constant arrival
