Reassure Me - Crazy Arm

Between the cracks in the pavement and the holes in our lives

Between selfish superstition and the open road

Between nostalgic remembrance and neurotic delight

There’s nothing to protect us from the falling sky

We call the shots, we know we’re in it for life

We trawl the streets for those who know it’s not right

We bite our tongues and let the anger subside

We fight in packs and learn to stay on the ride

Time will tell

Between the headaches, the heartbreaks and the social disgrace

Between contrition, remission and the breaking glass

Between blood and bone, out of sight, tuck in some kind of hell

Reassure me that everything is gonna be alright

We’re trapped and blinded by the city lights

The lovers have all bedded down for the night

The cops and crooks cruise the streets looking for a fight

The song fades to an unheard peace or stops dead like a gunshot

And you say to yourself, «This is truly what I’m not»
