Lyrics Bread and coffee The Promise Ring

 905

Bread and coffee


Drown yourself in bread and coffee
Fast forward right through the news
We spend weeks just window shopping
What else can we really do?
We could be anybody

Every time you take the water
We are too afraid to smile
Our faces turn transparent paper glass after a while
We see everybody

It's a long distraction between our satisfactions
Any good time should be just rolling by
Now the bees are indicators
Maybe we should go outside.
A fire drill keeps humming
There are floods that change the tide
There's one day for everybody

We are pairs of apple lions
Starved for clothes that we could wear
Long strings of double lookers
Easy listeners everywhere
We could be anybody

It's a long distraction between our better actions
Any good time should be just rolling by
We keep a graveyard of ships sunk in glass
The silverware is buried out back
It's a long distraction between our satisfactions
Any good time should be just rolling by

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics BREAD AND COFFEE of THE PROMISE RING is also present in the album Wood/water (2002)
