Paint Out The Light lyrics

You paint walls and buildings so tall Sunlight never reaches the earth A birth as the paint covers cracks And stains, and nothing remains No, nothing remains But a new face so pale and white Sunlight makes it shrink And think that maybe the womb Sings a better tune Sings a better tune And the mind-bending heat of blistering streets And air so polluted That every breath is a curse You paint walls and buildings so tall That sunlight never reaches earth But the sound of crying Still will reach your ears Still will reach your ears
