Текст песни A Song For Thomas - Sam Baird

Connor wakes up
It's 9am
Late for work again
Don't know who's air he's breathing
Broken arm
Has broken his credit score
Can't drive anymore
A money sink on the driveway

Climbing 15 floors
Sweat dripping off his forehead
He's clinging onto the walls
Standing at the edge knowing Thomas
Wouldn't let him drown

Don't jump off that building
Don't drown in your sorrows
But Connor turned to say
"You must have got this all misconstrued"
He's just up here to admire the view

A curious case of last nights blitz
Nothing seems to have gone the way
That Thomas said it did
A sobering view in front of him
The lingering thoughts of the world behind
It's not about being extraordinary
It's about being kind

Promises of another day
Couldn't stay
Where Connor could have been helped
For the hurt he paid
Where dead bodies wouldn't
Line the walls or the wards
Where the building he jumped from
Would have been short
His life seemingly would have been
For so much more
But Thomas, we're not there yet
(We're not there yet)

Don't jump off that building
Don't drown in your sorrows
But Connor turned to say
"You must have got this all misconstrued"
He's just up here to admire the view

My insignificant idle animation job
Won't miss me
And you know what?
I'd rather count the cars from up here
And imagine how sparse the interiors are
Being stuck down there would be depressing
Thomas would have taken me to space
If you'd just let him

Don't jump off that building
Don't drown in your sorrows
But Connor turned to say
"You must have got this all misconstrued"
He's just up here to admire the view
