lyrics

Inside, inside, inside, I'll take you there to work
But it's full, there's no room
And the games they play at night don't have a way of ending

Let's talk, let's talk, let's talk, I've found us a quiet place to work
Because talking's work when you get involved
You've got your systems and a problem to solve

Let's go into town, fall hard on deaf ears
Drowning in the noise, drowning in shallow depths

You drive, it's your turn
We need to get there by sunrise, load the truck
I know that we need them, it's hard to break free from city life
But they need us... more than we need them

Let's go into town, fall hard on deaf ears
Drowning in the noise, drowning in shallow depths
