The Grey Estates - Wolf Parade

Darling please

Let’s get out of here

On a train to who knows where

I’ve got a feeling that I can’t explain

We had to leave this place

We won’t be back again

Getting tired of landscapes

We’re just floating

Rolling past the grey estates

What put the fire in his stomach out

What moved its hands all across your mouth

Out through the window let the neon sing

In place of telegraphs that don’t mean a thing

And we crawled off to our destinations

Rolling past the grey estates

Rushing through

A new world

A new world

A new world

It’s just a minute away

Rushing through

A new world

A new world

A new world

It’s just a minute away

So let the needle on the compass swing

Let the iron in your heart’s blood ring

Strike up the band as the ship goes down

And if it’s loud enough

They will erase the sound

Of one hundred thousand

Sad inventions

Let them rot

Inside the grey estate

Rushing through

A new world, a new world, a new world

It’s just a minute away

Rushing through

A new world, a new world, a new world

It’s just a minute away

I’m half awake and the world is ending

All across the border just a minute away

I’m half awake and the world is ending

Across the border just a minute, just a minute away
