Austerity Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I thought things would take off but they cooled down
Your voice on the phone, I hear traffic behind
Violent rain outside looking out
Looking up, a fragment of sky
Looking to leave, transmit and deceive
[Pre-Chorus]
Kill off the fortune-tellers
[Chorus]
You say that woe is always on your mind
You drag me back in for a breath of comfort
No longer telling wrong from right
The ghost-like horizon of your eye
[Verse 2]
I hear things aren't well since you sold me out
I remember you clear, your rituals of doubt
With city lights from 1988
Sprinkled like dust on your window pane
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
You say that woe is always on your mind
You drag me back in for a breath of comfort
No longer telling wrong from right
The ghost-like horizon of your eye
[Bridge]
Maelstrom

You fall back
To aged ideals controlled by thunder
Ruled by dishonor
Come, feel, I am not real
[Chorus]
Woe is always on your mind
You dragged me back in for a breath of comfort
No longer telling wrong from right
The ghost-like horizon of your eye
