lyrics

Like a sunset on a grey day
We catch a falling cloud
It doesn’t know I’m here
Where no-one can talk aloud
When the optimists of Nine Elms
Haunt the pessimists of Grove Park
You’re losing me
You’re losing me
You’re losing me
You’re losing me

Like a waterfall in the desert
We evaporate to stone
We’re slippery to the touch
Autumnal to the bone
Can’t drown me in your sorrows
Where it only follows that we’re on our own
And you’re losing me
You’re losing me
You’re losing me
You’re losing me

And I’m scattered like the roadkill
In the pages of your Facebook photoshoots
With its huge cast of indifference
In the hum of the worthier contribution
I’m wide-eyed and fired up
Rousing but disparate
Where you’re losing me
You’re losing me
You’re losing me
You’re losing me

Let’s catch up soon
We can shoot the moon
We’ll care about anything
We want to care about right now

Let’s join their herd
And what they heard
Is what they want to hear
With our changeable winds
Where I could have learned—or have been shown—
The kinds of things I really, really ought’ve known

Like a sunset on a grey day
The moon, she doesn’t know I’m there
She can’t even tell the difference
So it really doesn’t matter who I am
When we live so much for our time
We all give up our moment, and to recognize
You’re losing me
You’re losing me
You’re losing me
You’re losing me

(And you’re losing me) Like a sunset on a grey day
(You’re losing me) Like a sunset on a grey day
(You’re losing me) There’s a sunset on a grey day
(You’re losing me) It’s a sunset on a grey day
(And you’re losing me) You’re a sunset on a grey day
(You’re losing me) A sunset on a grey day
(You’re losing me)
(You’re losing me)
