frank turner - the corner lyrics

Loading...

down on the corner of what i want, and what i intend to get
day drinking and dreaming of you, i let
the ashtray smoke my last cigarette

once i had a casual acquaintance with my impending doom
years ago she promised me some day soon
but how i moved, from room to room

i ain’t transcending much of nothing
i’ve been down in it, i ain’t free
weren’t no experiment – these seven years they went
like a life out of me

clowning on the corner of almost gone but maybe not just yet
there’s still a little left to p-wn and the bones aren’t set
the cast is slack, the plaster’s still wet

stepping up the escalator singing
ah h-ll i am out of here
past the predetermined terminals of tears
the wings are warm, the runway’s clear

i ain’t transcending much of nothing
i’m still down in it, and i ain’t free
weren’t no experiment – these seven years they went
like a life out of me

maybe all the world’s a hollow recreation, my desperate bretheren
hallowed blue hallucination we play to win
put your right foot out, put your right foot in

but it’s a useful little illusion, that’ll lose you for a song
in the beautiful confusion, that you’ve been down and counting on

and it’s a useful little illusion that’ll lose you for a song
in the beautiful confusion that you’ve been down and counting on

i ain’t transcending, ahh nothing
i’m still down in it, and i ain’t free
weren’t no experiment – h-ll, every tear was rent
like a life out of me

down on the corner of what i want, and what i intend to get
day drinking and dreaming of you, i let
the ashtray smoke my last cigarette
