Talking like you're worthless
On a sunny summer day
The hills rolled down in violets
But the sky seems dark and grey
Wasted like these promises
Shattered on a busy street
With the reasons in the gutter now
And the future at your feet
I don't want to make a single sound
Nothing's all that simple but we've lost our common ground
Watching as the sun sets red
As the colours turn to black
Some grassy knolls to blur the lines
Where the street lights might attack
Lovers that could never find their place
Lovers that can't live with their disgrace
Watch it come and watch it go
A flame blown out before you know
Every truth that you've been shown was wrong
Some bombs gone off like fireworks
Though these cries won't make a sound
This noisy clatter's awkward
But we've lost our common ground
We've lost our common ground
Well we've lost our common ground
We've lost our common ground
