this third-floor walkup in the city gets hot
when it’s been too long since it’s seen the rain
kind of like when it takes a lot of time to see your face again
is it true what they say?
we’ve come too far to lose
is it true what they say?
an apple like that hides the bruise
the flies have found the thing that rots;
the screens won’t stop them anyway
we'll wait for the heat to drop or find a better way
we’ll keep our eyes to the sky tonight
we’ll keep our eyes to the sky tonight
we’ll keep our eyes to the sky tonight
we’ll keep our eyes to the sky
is it true what they say?
we’ve come too far to lose
is it true what they say?
an apple like that hides the bruise
this third-floor walkup in the city gets hot
when it’s been too long since it’s seen the rain
we’ll plant ourselves a garden plot and wait for drops of rain
we’ll keep our eyes to the sky tonight
we’ll keep our eyes to the sky tonight
we’ll keep our eyes to the sky tonight
we’ll keep our eyes to the sky
