The market - Evanthia Reboutsika

We're on the backseat ridin' on the 116 You're out of battery, and I've been tryna tax your cigs You told your mother you were sleepin' at a mate's in Greasbrough She believed ya Then you asked if you could send a text And it all kicked off, all about your ex And you jumped off two stops too soon to walk it back I remember when you used to call my name We had two flat tires and no spare change And there's never gonna be a time like that If we could take it back, then would we meet By the statues there on Market Street? If you lost your way, I'll help you make it back I got a bird in Notts, I don't get to see her much She's got a boyfriend, but they're always breakin' up You said he'd let you down at takin' you out to the pictures To come with you So I walked in there feelin' ten-foot tall By the old arcade down in Meadow Hall And I told you that I'd never break your heart Had it all lined up for you and me But it wasn't meant to be I remember when you used to call my name We had two flat tires and no spare change And there's never gonna be a time like that If we could take it back, then would we meet By the statues there on Market Street? If you lost your way, I'll help you make it back Sittin' out under the stars Resin burns in burnt-out cars Wonderin' what we'll be like when we're old But as the years go by, the times will change And the rain might fade your Argos chain And I doubt you'll ever think of me again I remember when you used to call my name We had two flat tyres and no spare change And there's never gonna be a time like that If we could take it back, then would we meet By the statues there on Market Street? If you lost your way, I'll help you make it back I remember when you used to call my name We had two flat tires and no spare change And there's never gonna be a time like that

A currency of heartache and sorrow The air we breathe is stale with mold To shadows we are slaves digging deeper every day But emptiness is growing so old Headlamps light the tunnels we wander They shimmer and they dance on the walls We're lost inside these caves as the chances of escape Grow slimmer 'til there's no chance at all This ink, it travels from the page Up my hand into my veins Choking on the stories I've told If there are words here left to say I just wanna let you know I'm falling on my knees right now I'm covered in the mess I made These colors used to wash right out But now they are a part of me I've been searching for a remedy When all along it's been in front of me I need you here, I need you now Right now We traffic in the blackest of markets Trade misery like diamonds and gold The angst that we exchange for applause and petty praise Is finally now taking its toll But there's a world above the ground A life that we can lead We're washing off the dirt from our clothes I don't wanna live without No, I just wanna let you know I'm falling on my knees right now I'm covered in the mess I made These colors used to wash right out But now they are a part of me I've been searching for a remedy And all along its been in front of me I need you here, I need you now Right now Right now (Black stains) They mark me like a letter (Don't fade) Cracking under the pressure (Black stains) Nothing stays gold There's a world above the ground A life that we can lead But we're lost deep down in these holes And I have seen the way out Now I just wanna let you know I'm falling on my knees right now I'm covered in the mess I made These colors used to wash right out But now they are a part of me I've been searching for a remedy When all along it's been in front of me Your voice it washed the stains away Woah oh, oh Woah oh, oh Woah oh, oh, oh

I'm gonna take you down to the market, lover 'Cause that's where the trouble starts You gotta get it into your heart There are people out there to make you feel bad But don't you listen, baby Don't you listen 'Cause I know you feel that way But I'm getting so tired Of people always crossing my wires Life's just far too short For miscommunication I'm gonna take her down to the market today 'Cause that's where the trouble starts You don't want nobody else There are people out there to make you feel good But don't you listen, baby Don't you listen 'Cause you know they want it all But I'm getting so tired Of people always crossing my wires Life's just far too short For miscommunication Oh, I'm getting so tired Of people always crossing my wires Life's just far too short For miscommunication Communication Communication
