Where We Were - Gus Harrower, Rush Midnight

Hold up inside I’m blind

There’s nothin' for me to see

Lift up your velvet curtain

My loves drowned in ecstasy

You’ve got me in your orbit now

All the cruise control systems are down

Take a peek outside what do you see

My loves caught in your gravity

Can’t take another second on this boat

The Captain’s dead we’ll sink not float

We’re swimming back to the icy shore

Back to square one, like where we were before

What will we do when the stores have closed?

And our groceries lying decomposed

We’re painting red crosses on the doors

Back to square one, like where we were before

So sick of this monotony

How can we repave?

No light in recent history

When can we seek change?

Can’t take another second in this home

You all are eating honeycomb

We’re heading back to the icy shore

Back to square one, like where we were before

What will we do when the stores have closed?

And our groceries lying decomposed

We’re painting red crosses on the doors

Back to square one, like where we were before

Now we drift

Chances missed

Pitches shift singing lovers kisses that she doesn’t hold

She let’s them go

Such a fool and I told her so

But nobody listens when it’s time to glow

Back to square one like where we were before

So sing it louder just to let them know

Sing it louder just to let them know

Can’t take another second on this boat

The Captain’s dead we’ll sink not float

We’re swimming back to the icy shore

Back to square one, like where we were before

What will we do when the stores have closed?

And our groceries lying decomposed

We’re painting red crosses on the doors

Back to square one, like where we were before
