dawes – less than five miles away lyrics

Loading...

between the cold drinks in the freezer
and the latest tabloid rags
a voice screams over the music
“put the money in the bag!”
no one ever hears his reasons
no one ever hears his name
this is all happening right now
less than five miles away

a shifty fortune teller (a second-rate contender)
communion with the dead (in the middle of round four)
lying about the astral plane (deflecting every combination)
so she can keep her children fed (until he just can’t anymore)
listening to a mother sick with cancer (he feels his knees starting to buckle)
wondering what she’s gonna say (he hears the numbers one through eight)
this is all happening right now
less than five miles away
this is all happening right now
less than five miles away

the stranger in the bushes
looking through the windows of a home
at a woman from the movies
that’s been living there alone
she’s home at 7 in the evening
he sees the code punched in the gate
this is all happening right now
less than five miles away
this is all happening right now

and it all looks so pretty from a distance
how we’re living out this story that we tell
baby we were both designed out in the cosmos
as just a way of asking questions about itself

you know the great writer that left us
well his house is still around
like an old dead volcano
that sleeps over the town
they’re gonna turn it into condos
they’ll be done by new year’s day
this is all happening right now
less than five miles away
this is all happening right now
