Coming Up For Air

In the west of town there's no promised land

And if you can't get that through your head then fine

And if you want me to be honest with

You can ask me and I'll tell you everything

And if you want to know a lie

Then I'll tell you a lie

If you want to know the truth

Then I'll tell you

Oh when you're coming up for air

And you think there's someone there

No you won't see me

Coz I'm faster than you think

As the world flies by and I close my eyes

To empty office buildings and the five-a-side

Where the air is thin in the morning light

If I'm on this road I'm gonna wait again

And if you want to know a lie

Then I'll tell you a lie

If you want to know the truth

Then I'll tell you

Oh when you're coming up for air

And you think there's someone there

No you won't see me

Coz I'm faster than you think

If you want the truth then just ask me

I will give it to you but you won't like it much

And if that's okay then we'll get on fine

And if not then we can call it quits

And if you want to know a lie

Then I'll tell you a lie

If you want to know the truth

Then I'll tell you

Oh when you're coming up for air

And you think there's someone there

No you won't see me

Coz I'm faster than you think

And if that's okay then we'll get on fine

And if not then we can call it quits
