Paint Out The Light Lyrics

Jawbox – Paint Out The Light Lyrics

You paint walls and
Buildings so tall -
Sunlight never reaches the earth
A birth, as the paint covers cracks
And stains, and nothing remains
But a new face so pale and white -
Sunlight makes it shrink
And think that maybe the womb
Sings a better tune
The mind-bending heat of blistering streets
And air so polluted
That every breath is a curse
You paint walls and buildings so tall
That sunlight never reaches earth
But the sound of crying still
Will reach your ears
