Sirens - Young Fathers

Riding along with a dusty picture

Sure is getting hard to say I missed you

It’s in his blood it’s in his nature

Husband a

Brother

A friend

But it’s just too much

Too much

Oooh it’s just too much

But you’ll try a little more again

A husband

A brother

A friend

Sirens

Our leading light

You walk upright

Such a vision in morning light

You sing the words you’ve never seen

And you talk to your god and in your dreams

The police are on cocaine

And they wanna know my name

Said they love me all the same

Radio’s

Hyping up a little more

Oh my oh my oh my

Who’s next

The bullet never knows

Bang bang bang

Goes the lazarino

Hit the bulls eye

Fi fi fi finito

Shed them scales like a serpent

(ah ah ah)

Allergic to safety, too urgent

Too nervous

I’ll put the blame on you

When god is dead

You point the gun at me

Take me instead

And I know there’s violence

I see that look in his eyes

And I know it’s violence

Everything won’t come out clear

Violate the silence

The silence

The sirens

The sirens

(Sirens)
