Lyrics for A Looking In View
Hear footsteps creak the floor The shadows give away Someone outside the door Won't let 'em in Life damaged kids to crime A rundown broke machine That steals your peace of mind Before you know it's gone Lay Down Wait Silence burning Hold your tongue Keep us separate Sullen, dumb Hiding in the darkness under Boiling to the surface Stumble, fall A looking in view too long on the outside Desperate plans make sense in a low life Ah-ah-ah A looking in view too long on the outside Desperate plans make sense in a low life Ah-ah-ah These things I hate in you Also reflect, it seems Distortion laced with spite Takes you out of me Lay Now Lay Hiding in the darkness under Boiling to the surface, somethin' Crawling on your skin, discomfort Makes you break and run, stumble, fall A looking in view too long on the outside Desperate plans make sense in a low life Ah-ah-ah A looking in view too long on the outside Desperate plans make sense in a low life Ah-ah-ah It's why you never tell me heaven's on your mind It's why you never tell me heaven's on your mind It's why you never tell me heaven's on your mind It's why you never tell me heaven's on your mind A looking in view too long on the outside Desperate plans make sense in a low life Ah-ah-ah A looking in view too long on the outside Desperate plans make sense in a low life Ah-ah-ah It's why you never tell me heaven's on your mind A vengeful mind Oh God (oh) Selfish plans, a vengeful mind It's all gone (oh)
