lyrics

The city where I go I´m understanding less
Their speed conveys conviction
It´s just a nervous twitch
Caffeine fueled, still feeling tired wheezing traffic´s city choir
In empty rooms thin shadows dance
You paid their rent on credit cards

And it´s not too late to change your wave
Not too late to shed it all
Dig down deep into that hole
There you'll see those weak foundation stones

The phone now rings, your local branch requests a chat
The stress kicks-in a heart attack, you´re feeling weak
Those shadows laugh look look convenience a chemist shop
The city feeds it´s chemicals in public troughs

And it´s not too late to change your wave
Not too late to shed it all
Whisper to those hollow stones
They crumble, then the river flows
It´s not too late to change
Not too late to change
Not too late to change at all
