Humdrum and Humble

[Verse 1]
Mistress of the mind
Take me where the air is clean
Ignorance is kind
Emerald and evergreen

[Pre-Chorus 1]
30 days September
Year of miracle and grief
Through the haze, remember
You're an animal, not a mineral

[Chorus]
And we won the war, lost the war
Lost the battle, won the battle
Won the war, lost the war
Lost the battle
All for the love of the humdrum and humble
Colour for the colourblind
All for the love of the humdrum and humble

[Verse 2]
Through the human eye
Nature a soul extreme
Nothing seems to die
Pictures in a magazine

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Through the maze, precisely
Through the myriad of schemes
With your gaze, entice me
Like an animal, not a mineral

[Chorus]
And we won the war, lost the war
Lost the battle, won the battle
Won the war, lost the war
Lost the battle
All for the love of the humdrum and humble
Colour for the colourblind
All for the love of the humdrum and humble

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Through the maze, precisely
Through the myriad of schemes
With your gaze, entice me
Like an animal, not a mineral

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
And we won the war, lost the war
Lost the battle, won the battle
Won the war, lost the war
Lost the battle
All for the love of the humdrum and humble
Colour for the colourblind
All for the love of the humdrum and humble
Rubbishing the philistines
All for the love of the humdrum and humble
