Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Fell asleep on the carpet
On a television starship
As your plane climbed
Slowly over the ocean
It got so much darker
As our shadows crossed on the wall
I was sat in a lawn chair
When it started to snow
[Verse 2]
On the road in a dawn black void
In the space between hotel rooms, inside there's no weather
We live in comfort forever
With the recently dead
How can this town feel so different
And look exactly the same?
Like the face of your mother
As you're sweating through a fever dream
[Chorus]
I live a gentle life
I'll go to the window
I will look out, again and again
I live a gentle life
I'll go to the window
I will look out, again and again
[Verse 3]
One day, you'll walk into the river
There will be flowers all around
Trout will dance in the ripples
Like fallen jewels
[Verse 4]
I'll tell you all about it
When you've got some time to hear it
A moment pickled in sugar
Again and again
[Outro]
Twelve gates into the city
Twelve gates into the city
I hear they're building another
Another for me
Twelve gates into the city
Twelve gates into the city
But I hear they're building another
Another just for me
