Lyrics The Ordinary Boys

The Ordinary Boys

Walking On The Faultlines (The Ultimate Step)

It was obvious, but I just couldn't see it

How to stay on the playlist, stay edgeless and pretty

How to avoid the red marks, that are so carelessly damning

To shake off the truth and retain the glamour

Have you heard all the stars that are relentlessly living?

You care that the world can be so unforgiving

It's so desperately easy to fall out of orbit

Now I'm all but out and it's so certainly for it

There's only one more step I know

Maybe it could be avoided but I don't think so

I guess I'm ready...here we go

I've been walking on the faultlines

I've been taking the dark route home

I've been dancing on the landmines

There's nowhere else to go

In the end will be my beginning

To get on the A-list I'll just quitt when I'm winning

To forgive not forget, to repent not regret

And to close my eyes would be my bravest move yet

And I wake up and it's my finest hour

Then the party ends and the sweetness turns sour

It's so desperately easy for me to employ it

The only catch is I'm not here to enjoy it

There's only one more step I know

Maybe it could be avoided but I don't think so

I guess I'm ready...here we go

I've been walking on the faultlines

I've been taking the dark route home

I've been dancing on the landmines

There is nowhere else to go

Whoo-whey, whoo-whey, whoo whoo

There's only one more step I know

I guess I'm ready...here we go

I've been walking on the faultlines

I've been taking the dark route home

I've been dancing on the landmines

There is nowhere else to go

I've been getting drunk and playing with matches

Listening to the radio in the bath

I've been crossing main roads with my eyes closed

With my name in lights or my name in stone
