Perfect Symmetry Lyrics

[Bridge]
And maybe you'll find life is unkind and over so soon
There is no golden gate, there's no heaven waiting for you

Oh, boy, you ought to leave this town
Get out while you can the meter's running down

The voices in the streets you love
Everything is better when you hear that sound
Woah, woah, woah

[Backing Chorus]
Spineless dreamers hide in churches
Pieces of pieces of rush hour buses
I dream in emails, worn out phrases
Mile after mile of just empty pages

[Extended Chorus]
Wrap yourself around me
Wrap yourself around me
As the needle slips into the run out groove
Maybe you'll feel it too, maybe you'll feel it too
Maybe you'll feel it too, maybe you'll feel it too

[Outro]
(Spineless dreamers hide in churches)
Pieces of pieces of rush hour buses
I dream in emails, worn out phrases
Mile after mile of just empty pages
