Not Even Close - Lyrics by Finn Tim


Lyrics
I've been walking the straight line
Living in my best friend's pocket
Been looking at my life
All the time, all the time
How can I do my work?
Always looking over my shoulder When everything falls apart When you make a false start Then you can't turn the pages And you can't find the door When you're nobody's baby Not even close to pulling through
We fill up stolen hours,
Hunger for the touch of money
Building crooked towerson the faultline, faultline
When I came running to you
I was following the light from a dead star When everything falls apart When you meet a false heart Then you can't turn the pages And you can't find the door When you're nobody's baby Not even close to pulling through-------------------------------------------------------------- James Anthony Peter Matthew Mark Luke John Bowditch ----------------- pfgumby@yoyo.cc.monash.edu.au ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ And the piano smells like a piano, ---------- And the microphone smells like a microphone, ---------- And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar ---------- and it gets all soggy and sinks to the bottom. ----------------------------------------------------------------
