Alice Greaves - Buildings Lyrics

You leaned your head against the wall
And looked around to see these buildings
Walk back to your home, have a zepam
And let the coma catch you dreamless

Burial town, there is no light
No hope to escape, my darling
Dirty façades, no trees alive
We have been raised in flats without balconies

Dwelling in concrete won't make you hurt
Since you were born inside these walls
Since this is everything you know
These blocks are where we all belong
Come up these stairs and rain will be
Your only company as these dim lights won't quit their glow

Burial town, there is no light
No hope to escape, my darling
Dirty façades, no trees alive
We have been raised in flats without balconies

In these hives you will find what you think and who you are
In these hives you will find what you think and who you are
In these hives you will find what you think and who you are
In these hives, you can be sure, it's the homeland of the poor

In these hives you will find what you think and who you are
In these hives you will find what you think and who you are
In these hives you will find what you think and who you are
In these hives, you can be sure, it's the homeland of the poor
