liz stringer - victoria lyrics

Loading...

i am walking inside myself
now that these streets belong to someone else
but i feel new blood running through my hands

deep in my pockets as the shadows here expand

the city i love it ain’t my city no more
the house we grew up in doesn’t stand here anymore
the swarm of change has sent its huge flanks wide
i’m gonna watch ships come in on another tide

little tiny baby i’ll never let you down
but i cried in the morning just to hear a sound
don’t you worry darling i won’t give you up
but i’m here in the middle and in the middle isn’t far enough

i used to walk here in the winter time
the quiet streets washed out by yellow lights
brown paper in the window where our days were spent
coffee like nectar, now they can’t afford the rent

a wave of grief looms over me
and i cower in the indents of my history
so i’m leaving here before here leaves me
i can’t bear to tread damp sands where rivers once flowed out to sea

little tiny baby i won’t let you down
’cause i cried in the morning just to hear a sound
don’t you worry darling i won’t give you up
i’m here in the middle and in the middle isn’t far enough

every numbered track that binds these suburbs to each other
every length of fresh chalked line
bluestone lane, brick wall and gutter
every house i got f+cked up in ’til they all looked like any other
informs it all since i could crawl, you taught me all i know

victoria
victoria
victoria
victoria
