Little Comets – Coalition Of One lyrics

[Verse 1]
Food banks spring open
Like jaws dropping in time
The weight of man is measured
By the depths of a carrier bag
I'm frozen for ages
The same faces, the same scars
It's a shame all our sages
Are rotten to the middle

[Chorus]
Someone better tell me when the lights go out
So I know where I should hide
Someone better offer me their salient thoughts
On a welfare state denied
Someone better smother me in disregard
So I'll make it through the night
And there's so many people
That feel the same as I do

[Verse 2]
So don't listen to your heart
Listen to your soul
Listen to your common senses
I've been battered like a storm
Been run into a wall
Been vaulted like a row of fences
Don't be surprised
When those wide eyes
Drill a hole into the present tenses
You should cherish even more
The things that make us raw
Stay loyal to the consequences

[Chorus]
Someone better tell me when the lights go out
So I know where I should hide
Someone better offer me their salient thoughts
On a welfare state denied
Someone better smother me in disregard
So I'll make it through the night
And there's so many people
That feel the same as I do

And there's so many people
That feel the same as I do
And there's so many people
That feel the same as I do
And there's so many people
That feel let down like I do
