Paint Out the Light

Lyrics

You paint walls and Buildings so tall - Sunlight never reaches the earth A birth, as the paint covers cracks And stains, and nothing remains But a new face so pale and white - Sunlight makes it shrink And think that maybe the womb Sings a better tune The mind-bending heat of blistering streets And air so polluted That every breath is a curse You paint walls and buildings so tall That sunlight never reaches earth But the sound of crying still Will reach your ears
