the cribs – swinging at shadows lyrics

[verse 1]
when whispers tempted me in, spent the afternoon pinned
on the far side of the playing field
then shall we skip to the part where i’m hung from the bars
or not?
and then behind the grandstand where we made all our plans
the moment came and left without me
on the last bus back i’m gonna think about that
only

[chorus]
and they’ll never let us in
we’ll be outsiders once again
if we were ever anything else, i don’t know
but that just brings us closer
yeah they’ll never let us in
we’ll be outsiders once again
if we were ever anything else, i don’t know
no

[verse 2]
we blew the hours we got from dandelion clocks
and as they drift off they weigh hard on me
’cause as we draw near the end it’s just if not now then when?
again
and though we felt we were free, we spent an eternity
with different places that we need to be
me without you and you just fine without me
[chorus]
and they’ll never let us in
we’ll be outsiders once again
if we were ever anything else, i don’t know
but that just brings us closer
yeah they’ll never let us in
we’ll be outsiders once again
if we were ever anything else, i don’t know
no

[bridge]
oh and after everyone’s gone home
they’re still out there and they’re swinging at shadows
wasting time holding lines that have become
just like the blanks fired from a hired gun
ringing out for no+one

[outro]
yeah they’ll never let us in
we’ll be outsiders once again
if we were ever anything else, i don’t know
but that just brings us closer
and they’ll never let us in
we’ll be outsiders once again
if we were ever anything else, i don’t know
no
