Coming Up For Air

I've got a lot here from my father's eyes
I've got a lot that's close to bear
He struggled out post-1945
While he was coming up for air
I'm picking on all your mumblings
I shiver with a quiver and I wind up stale
I'm watching your walls tumbling
Your forced fiend foxes'll wind up pale
I've got an uncle who has been inside
I've got another who is torn
He straddled out post-1945
While he was coming up for scorn
I'm picking on all your mumblings
I shiver with a quiver and I wind up stale
I'm watching your walls tumbling
Your forced fiend foxes'll wind up pale
He's coming up
He's coming up
Up for air

Oh take me deep diving in the coldest of sea
I'll lie there just pining where the coral can't breathe
It took five long years to drown these tears
But you are all I see
Daisy
Now I've got a keen question, I won't ask it too soon
I could lie there on canvas as you paint in your front room
It took five long years to drown these tears
But you are all I see
Daisy
Now your mother's been asking if I'm home for the week
But I reach for the bottle when I hear you sweet speak
It took five long years to drown these tears
But you are all I see
Daisy
Daisy
I could lie there on canvas on canvas on canvas on canvas
I could lie there on canvas on canvas on canvas on canvas
I could lie there on canvas on canvas on canvas on canvas
Daisy
Daisy
Daisy
Daisy
I never go back home, I never go back home
I never go back home

Got a feeling you should have left hours ago
Gotta watch that with you you won't laugh til you go
When will I be and when will you be
Lowered onto Pride Hill
It hurts to leave here, it hurts that you're here
Laughing about it still
There's a fire in your head that points towards the sun
And if you look at me just straight will I become someone
When will I be and when will you be
Lowered onto Pride Hill
It hurts to leave here, it hurts that you're here
Laughing about it still
And if you want me in your bed why don't you turn around and say it
And if you want my body dead why don't you tell me while you fake it
If I'm a necessary stage in all your grieving
Then I'll be leaving
Am I a razor in the night who comes in just to ask
If I'm the first one on your list or I'll be trailing last
When will I be and when will you be
Lowered onto Pride Hill
It hurts to leave here, it hurts that you're here
Laughing about it still

It's no biggie you need somewhere to sleep
And I live just next door
Need no ciggies, red wine and brie
You're all right as far as I'm concerned
What are the chances that you're shorter than me?
Veggie spicy pizza's on me
We should do this more
You school here too and I don't like to
We'll fight fire as far as ash is burned
What are the chances that you're shorter than me?
