The Grey Estates

Darling please, let's get out of here On a train to who knows where I've got a feeling that I can't explain We had to leave this place, we won't go back again Getting tired of landscapes, we're just floating Rolling past the grey estates Oh oh... Oh oh! What put the fire in his stomach out? What moved its hands all across your mouth? Out through the window let the neon sing In place of telegraphs that don't mean a thing And we crawled off to our destination Rolling past the grey estates Oh oh Oh oh! Rushing through And your world, and your world, and your world It's just a minute away Rushing through And your world, and your world, and your world It's just a minute away So let the needle on the compa*s swing Let the iron in your heart's blood ring Strike up the band as the ship goes down And if it's loud enough, they will erase the sound Of one hundred thousand sad inventions Let them rot inside the grey estate oh oh oh oh! Rushing through And your world, and your world, and your world It's just a minute away Rushing through And your world, and your world, and your world It's just a minute away I'm half awake and the world is ending All across the border just a minute away I'm half awake and the world is ending Across the border just a minute, just a minute away
