lyrics

We coulda been lawyers
We coulda been friends
We coulda been chewed up by the noise
and spit back out again

The noise in our countries
The noise in our heads
The noise of pain and luxury
and the sound of beds

It won’t give protection
It won’t take affection
Just ask the angry teenage boys
who run the noise projection

It’s all about what coulda been.
Subsequent evaluation.
Validation of your whims
then save your reputation.

Oh what a heart of tin
oh what an imitation
to throw your heart into the din
and look for compensation.

When you retire
It’s just a junkyard of joys.
We’re walkin’ in the sacrificial fire
of the endless noise.

Worn down and tired
we’re killing all the joys,
burning in the fire
of the endless noise.
burning in the fire
of the endless noise.
burning in the fire
of the endless noise.
