Outside of Cool, Vol. 1

There's a place in the distance

I thought I'd like to tame

And when I saw my reflection

And I spoke its name

It made me sweat

It makes me sweat

When you hear this confession

Don't take it for pity

This is a song to add

To the tower of plenty

Can I get a room

With a view of the alley

And when I close the curtains

I hear the heat pipes coughing in my head

Let me show you how to love

What it is to be the fool

When you're standing in the deadlight

And you're polishing your shoes

Let me show you how to love

What it is to be the fool

When you find yourself a spotlight

On the outside of cool

A punch in the face

Is sometimes a blessing

Highjacked by a moment

You should've been expecting

It makes you sweat

It made me sweat

How the voice of a shadow

Has been misunderstood

Without religion

The cross is just wood

So let's shed a light

On what it means to good

I've got the soul of a prayer

From the heart of my neighbourhood

Let me show you how to love

What it is to be the fool

When you're standing in the deadlight

And you're polishing your shoes

Let me show you how to love

What it is to be the fool

When you find yourself a spotlight On the outside of cool
