lyrics

The stars are shining out like broken glass
I want to rest my head down in the grass
So the scattered spots of light can cut holes in my eyes
Tonight I want to be blind

This friend of mine is singing songs
They rise up through the floorboard of our home
They take him to a place where he is free but he's along
And tonight I want to go there too

The last few weeks I've been alright
This girl of mine's been here for a fortnight
And she's looking up at me with the bravest blue eyes
So tonight I'll tell no lies

My train will roll in soon then I'm done
I'm tired of acting like I'm on the run
I don't want to stay in a place that stays the same
But tonight I'm sitting still

So let's head to the fields beneath broken glass stars
If you make up some words I will play guitar
Because I don't want to sing, I just feel like listening
Tonight I want to be quiet
