Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
I wrote a line about a ship destroyed in a storm
The imagery's nice but the story is so worn
Plus, I've never seen the sea
I'm metaphorically landlocked
So I make up waves in the gutters where I walk
Like an abandoned building's walls
Can't I stand until they bring a wrecking ball?
Cut me up
Tear me down
Cut me up
Tear me down
ย
Well, my bus was so late and my tea ain't that great
You'd swear I'm the target of genocide
And yes, I've always lived in the castle
I've never gone outside
But I won't blame a privileged life
On the reason why I can't survive one
Cut me up
Tear me down
Cut me up
ย
Yes, I know that it's all relative
But these are the palest shade of blues
And they're easy to hum along to
That's how they got passed onto you
I know I'm not as tough as the bricks of Aughrim Street
But I'll outlast your sails as you drown in a puddle
That's it, I swear I've had enough of this
Cut me up
Tear me down
Cut me up
Tear me down
(Oh, Oh)
