The Delgados - Keep On Breathing lyrics

I wonder if he knows the pleasure that he shows I can't seem to hide from the sounds around me I wonder where she goes dressed up in those clothes We just watch her drive away A woman sees her friends: continuous distraction She fills up her days while shes waits for phone calls A life in evidence is evidently lonely We all need a tale to tell Just another list of consequences of things that we do Just another hit of happenings that we have to live through In and out of all the reasons and all the 'whys' and 'wherefores' We just want to keep on breathing My view is compromised with undernourished eyes They watch and they wait for an altercation These boxes on the row, these overpriced abodes Will somebody give them life? We occupy a space with barriers and fences There's no line of sight into this protection Forgive us all a cheat, it's just another symptom We all need a tale to tell Just another list of consequences of things that we do Just another hit of happenings that we have to live through In and out of all the reasons and all the 'whys' and 'wherefores' We just want to keep on breathing We just want to keep on breathing We will watch and learn We will watch you perform Waiting behind the scenes Telling the tale I wonder if he knows how far his pleasure goes It all falls apart at the stroke of midnight I wonder where she goes, now she's in some clothes We just hear here drive away Just another list of consequences of things that we do Just another hit of happenings that we have to live through In and out of all the reasons and all the 'whys' and 'wherefores' We just want to keep on breathing Life is just a list of consequences of things that we do Just another hit of happenings that we have to live through In and out of all the reasons and all the 'whys' and 'wherefores' We just want to keep on breathing
