"Newtown Scraper" lyrics

"Newtown Scraper"

Caught coming down again
Board up all the windows
The little light that's creeping in
Is beginning to feel borrowed

Under the weight
Sit through the silence
Out on parade
And crawling correctly now
No never been
Still enough to be set in stone

Learned when to light the flame
Watching how the wind blows
Got my guard up again
So let the fire strip a layer off

Under the weight
Sit through the silence
Out on parade
And crawling correctly now
No never been
Still enough to be set in stone

Right between the push and pull
Somehow there's always a moment
That needs slowing down
I'll find my way back to the ground

Under the weight
Sit through the silence
Out on parade
And crawling correctly now
No never been
Still enough to be set in stone

And still it finds me

Under the weight
Sit through the silence
Out on parade
And crawling correctly now
No never been
Still enough to be set in stone
