lyrics

Nothing amazing happens here
Everything is ordinary
A city of red and grey
Of invisible change
And where everything's the same
Where pollution keeps drowning us down

I know you're waiting for something bigger
Don't overflow
Just hang around by the river
Let's meet under the bridge at dusk
Even if it seems like a lost cause
Smoking your problems away
You watched me burning the city everyday
With my older brother's baseball bat
While you played in the grass with a black stray cat

Factories on our horizon and very little green
White steam-like smoke a dubious omen of sorts
Covering the city above and below
Vespa bikes unhinging my consciousness
Feel the beating of the bass pound my senses

I know you're waiting for something bigger
Don't overflow
Just hang around by the river
Let's meet under the bridge at dusk
Even if it seems like a lost cause
Smoking your problems away
You watched me burning the city everyday
With my older brother's baseball bat
While you played in the grass with a black stray cat

Why do you like making your shoes wet?
While you're playin' with your Game-Boy at sunset
You keep taking pictures with that old camera
Push the tears back, don't run away
Keep riding on a shooting star each night!

I know you're waiting for something bigger
Don't overflow
Just hang around by the river
Let's meet under the bridge at dusk
Even if it seems like a lost cause
Smoking your problems away
You watched me burning the city everyday
With my older brother's baseball bat
While you played in the grass with a black stray cat

I wish I had true friends
Like others seem to have
Those friends on whom I can always rely
But I'm quite a distant person
I can't hold on to such things
So I know I'll never have them
'Cuz to most I'm just a stupid boring kid
Guess I'm too shy
I'm just like that
And you're not waiting
Under the bridge anymore

Nothing amazing happens here
Everything is ordinary
