High Rise Blues (Dawn)

[Verse] In the tower where the shadows grow tall Paint's peeling like it’s seen it all Elevator's broke so I take the stairs Neighbors yelling like they just don’t care [Chorus] High rise blues where the wild things play Broken dreams in the light of day But we laugh Oh yeah We make it fun Dancing to the beat of a setting sun [Verse 2] Johnny’s on the corner with a smile so sly Sells you stories Gets you flying high Betty’s in her kitchen Singing off-key She’s cooking up something but it ain’t no tea [Chorus] High rise blues where the wild things play Broken dreams in the light of day But we laugh Oh yeah We make it fun Dancing to the beat of a setting sun [Bridge] Roof leaks when it rains Puddles on the floor Cracks in the wall But we still want more Turn the music up Drown the sirens out In this crazy world We twist and shout [Verse 3] The cat’s got more sense than half of the block He keeps his distance when the fights unlock But through the chaos We find our tune Underneath the glow of the busted moon
