Crawlers

Posted 15 July 2011 - 11:32 PM

As I went out
No, I didn't go in there again

I don't remember why
Though it may have been a matter of principle

And as I moved out
And opened my arms to the sunlight
The world wore fresh colours

People were smiling
Children were laughing
Making noises with their skaters
Going in circles around us

When everything turned out alright
Though we didn't get it right this time

We were all on the booze
We had nothing to lose
Just our guiltless lives

On pebble-studded sidewalks 
And river-crossed streets of our city
Where our destinies were chosen
When the night turned into day

It really turned out alright this time
Yeah, it turned out OK
