Songtexte Monoglot - The Weeks

Well, mistakes, leaving out this weekend
He won't wait, hoping no one sees them
He can't stay, holding on to somebody else
Switchblades, cut our faces
Midnight, he can't stay
Bleeding on the street, and he can't wait
Holding on to somebody's life

Well, you don't know nothin'
So leave me alone
I can't wait, what you can't stay
Built this house from nothing
Except blood and bones
I can't wait, what you can't stay

Fresh face, feeling all grown up
And she's so safe, makeup on the cup
And she can't wait
Holding on to somebody else
Well, hot knives
Cutting through the flesh on a cold night
Whispering the secret is all right
Praying we don't need no one's help

Hold on
Where the ships are heading is all wrong
Whiskey drunk and singing the same song
Someone took the wind from my sails
And the sun beats
Misty morning washing us all clean
Wishing we could say what this all means
Have to translate it ourselves

Well, you don't know nothin'
So leave me alone
I can't wait, what you can't stay
Built this house from nothing
Except blood and bones
I can't wait, what you can't stay

Well, fuck what I said
Yes, I've always been evil
I'll never be nothing but dirt to you people
So take what I give or I suggest you leave it alone
Well, brilliance is spoken around corners and curves
And I don't know the language
Much less know the words
But I listen intently and try hard to follow along

Well, you don't know nothin'
So leave me alone
I can't wait, what you can't stay
Built this house from nothing
Except blood and bones
I can't wait, what you can't stay
