"My Lover Lies Under" lyrics

"My Lover Lies Under"
(originally by Cherry Ghost)

Through the shadows of the old high rise
Cross the factory floors and severed ties
Some place, somewhere there are bluer skies
My lover lies under

Pass the battle hymns of late-night bars
Through the endless lines of motor cars
There's a quiet night of quiet stars
My lover lies under

I do believe I've lost my faith in Hollywood
Those dreams upon the screen aren't for the likes of us
But I swear somewhere there is a heart that I could love
But sometimes I wonder

Pass the warring tongues and prying eyes
Through the subways and the city lights
Some place somewhere there are bluer skies
My lover lies under

I do believe I've lost my faith in Hollywood
Those dreams upon the screen aren't for the likes of us
But I swear somewhere there is a heart that I could love
But sometimes I wonder

Through the shadows of the old high rise
Through the footnotes of self-sacrifice
There's a sunset in our paradise
My lover lies under

But sometimes I wonder
