Modern English — Black Houses lyrics

Lyrics

Sunday morning, the sun is shining, peacefully
ball games in the park, joyfully
the car’s being cleaned again, the grass is mowed
a sudden feeling, the wind is building, the clouds are forming
I tried to move
I tried to think
I tried to live
the format’s changing, the colours different, breathing in concentrated, ?, touch my skin
turned the tap off, stumbled backwards, my mind exploded
a distant rumbling, my body’s aching, my eyes are burning
I tried to move
I tried to think
I tried to live
white houses last longer
they go in the end
go to the baby in a black house
read all about it, read all about it, read all about it, read all about it move to the coast
keep to your community, keep to your community,
keep to your community, keep to your community,
you can’t take it with you
religion can’t help, religion can’t help, religion can’t help, religion
can’t help
Sunday morning, the sun is shining, peacefully
ball games in the park, joyfully
the car’s being cleaned again, the grass is mowed
a sudden feeling, the wind is building, the clouds are forming
I tried to move
I tried to think
I tried to live
