"Sarajevo" lyrics
"Sarajevo"
We were the lucky few
A luck we soon outgrew
And now instead we drift again
How I miss Sarajevo
Oh, we were lost at sea
To pause for thought, then we
Slip beneath the foam
And fall down to the seabed
Good times die young
For the faraway kids on the run
Nowhere to hide
The faraway kids, the faraway kids
At night, my soul sets sail
In minute detail
When I wake, I cry
For I've lost Sarajevo
And oh, the charges lacked all proof
And failed to light the fuse
For the Little Brutes
But I forsook Sarajevo
Good times die young
For the faraway kids on the run
Nowhere to hide
(Faraway kids, faraway kids)
Good times die young
For the faraway kids on the run (Faraway kids on the run)
Nowhere to hide
(Faraway kids, faraway kids)
Faraway kids
The faraway kids
The faraway kids
The faraway kids
The faraway kids
The faraway kids
The faraway kids
(Faraway kids, faraway kids)
I can't outrun
The terrible things I have done (Terrible things I have done)
I can't outrun
(Faraway kids, faraway kids)
We, we were the lucky few
A luck we soon outgrew
And now instead we drift again
How I miss Sarajevo
Drift again, I miss Sarajevo
(Faraway kids, faraway kids)
(Faraway ki-i-ids, faraway kids)
(Faraway kids, faraway kids)
(Faraway kids, faraway kids)
(Faraway kids, faraway kids)
(Faraway kids, faraway kids) The faraway kids, yeah

First you'll see me on the news

Mikky Ekko - "Who Are You, Really?" So you feel entitled to a sense of control
And make decisions that you think are your own
You are a stranger here, why have you come?

The Wombats - "Here Comes The Anxiety" I'd say that this is the darkest song I ever wrote
No hint of a smile or the usual quirky anecdote
No, this is a song about someone new, what not to say, what not to do
So now, I think I'll just be...

Don't let them see how your days roll by
