Sleep clouds disperse and settle on my bed Leave my eyes, but cling like cobwebs to my head It's like a book I never read All the dust inside my head
Can't be bought and you can keep tomorrow Can't be saved, there ain't no flies on me Can't be caught, the plague that ate your soul Can keep away from me
Down the evening rain falls Waltzing round my feet Paints reflections of the houses on my street Drawn out as the night draws in By the sound of laughing The smell of sin
Can't be bought and you can keep tomorrow Can't be saved, there ain't no flies on me Can't be caught, the plague that ate your soul Can keep away from me
Smile again for me As if you're going to say Nothing could have done all this Then gone away I may have just saved my life On a childish whim or a pretty rhyme
Can't be bought and you can keep tomorrow Can't be saved, there ain't no flies on me Can't be caught, the plague that ate your soul Can keep away from me (x2)
