lyrics
The elevator's slow speed, is still the same.
No mirror on the wall yet, but new color on the door.
They've opened up a hospital down on the second floor.
I'll be here for another month, but then I'm gone for sure.
I will soon leave you, you were my home for less than a year.
A bit too small but pretty nice and a view filled with fear
On the tenth floor with a parking roof right under is my sight.
You are the place I'm leaving now with my ordinary life.
Leaving the blue house by the old town square, where my neighbour fights his friends at night but no one seems to care.
Leaving the blue house by the old town square, where they rob you in the day and they take our monthly pay, but they want you so to stay.
My candle light has now burned down, My walls are empty but my bed is still there
It was the only piece we couldn't fit into the truck.
Now I'm driving away feeling insecure,
a new life's waiting, a new life's waiting
another door to step through.
Leaving the blue house by the old town square, where my neighbour fights his friends at night but no one seems to care.
Leaving the blue house by the old town square, where they rob you in the day and they take our monthly pay, but they want you so to stay.
