The Gold Medal Kid

from One Day, This All Will Disappear by Lonely Robot

/

lyrics

We’re taking off, but lets wait for one o’clock
for cannon-fire and good old John Gray’s dog
we’ll link arms through streets, tiptoe and creep
searching for peace and quiet and open air

under streetlights pause, to catch our breath and run
because tripping over cobblestones is fun

a city grown from boulders and stones
a room of tragedy, sonnets and circuitry
we’ve taken our hearts far off the grid
the storm is close but i am the gold medal kid

under streetlights pause, to catch our breath and run
because tripping over cobblestones is fun

i found the road. i found the road. i found the road. so take me home

and the crime scene won’t dictate our journey at all
our hope winds round everything we love
so let’s throw our caution to those winds that howl at the moon
is it strange that it’s the only way we knew (how to hide the blue)

i found the road. i found the road. i found the road. so take me home
