Gorgeous/Grotesque - Company Of Thieves

There’s nothing more gorgeous or grotesque than the sight of the garbage dumped

on the sides of the railroad tracks

In the morning, on my way to work, I see them- little lumps- just glittering in

the sunshine

What a messy way to say thank you

What a messy way to say thank you

Oh, we need a closeness

There’s nothing more helpless or hopeless than the birds of the city streets,

with the dirt on their heavy wings

In the evening, on my way to sleep, I hear them- screaming out into a bitter

melody

What a messy way to say thank you

What a messy way to say thank you

Oh, we need a closeness

'Cause when I wake

I am so far out from reach

I am so far from

We need a closeness, a harmless closeness

Oh we need a closeness, a harmless closeness!
