Myth - Keane

[00:15.48]You built it up brick by brick
[00:20.54]Put your heart into this baseless myth
[00:26.16]Nurtured it like a child
[00:31.02]And dressed its wounds when it ran wild
[00:35.88]
[00:36.52]You stopped to fix your face
[00:41.38]Someone else stepped in and took your place
[00:46.58]Now everything you once knew
[00:51.83]Is running circles around you
[00:55.47]
[00:56.72]A car door slamming in your road
[01:02.23]It jolts you like a kick inside
[01:07.33]A year old message on your phone
[01:12.65]That catches you when you can't hide
[01:15.50]
[01:16.45]I see you in the service station sign
[01:21.55]I see you in the supermarket line
[01:26.78]I see you silhouetted on a wall
[01:31.94]But I don't see myself there at all
[01:38.34]
[01:41.10]This vessel of Balsa wood
[01:46.38]Is the fag end tail of amoeba-hood
[01:51.56]The busying cast confer
[01:56.77]And get their taste of the drama
[02:00.87]
[02:02.07]You stare through mindless daytime shows
[02:07.42]And curse yourself for growing old
[02:12.29]The sterile scent of shaving foam
[02:17.51]Reminds you of another world
[02:20.46]
[02:21.40]I see you in the roofless sombre sky
[02:26.61]I see you when the lovers stop outside
[02:31.72]I see you silhouetted on a wall
[02:36.94]But I don't see myself there at all
[02:41.82]
[02:43.27]I see you in the sweetness of our child
[02:47.30]I see you in the supermarket aisle
[02:52.34]I see you when I'm kneeling on the floor
[02:57.70]But I can't see myself anymore
[03:04.30]
[03:30.32]Hard times got the upper hand
[03:35.64]Stole our feeble plans
[03:40.40]The faces, shot me, spin me round
[03:45.93]But I won't lie down
[03:50.44]
[03:51.09]Hard times shake me to the bone
[03:56.44]Face bruised, bloody nose
[04:01.36]Shell shocked, crawling on the ground
[04:06.72]Still I won't lie down
[04:15.09]
[04:19.04]No I won't lie down
[04:29.29]No I won't lie down
[04:40.22]I won't lie down
[04:44.47]
