Photographs In Black And White lyrics

Song information

Artist: No-Man
Album: Together We're Stranger

Lyrics

The city in a hundred ways
It wouldn't let you stay
Remember all the thankless days
And the lousy take home pay?

The photographs in black and white
That show you playing close to type -
Your eyes against the midday light
Your eyes when they still had the fight

They loved you
When you thought that no-one could
They loved you
When you said that no-one should

You talk so fast
To stop yourself from thinking
You move so fast
So you'll never see you're sinking

They love you
When you think that no-one can
They love you
And they'll tell you that they understand

They love you
Then they say you're much too
Much too bland

Spending days on the phone
While the cold eats your bones

How in the world do you make it right?
How in the world do you make a life?
