same town, new story

Singer:interpol

same town

new story

they bridge a fated span

he was bound for a glory

she found her winning man

so i bet she stood by him

through it all

i bet she stood by him

when she was pounding on the wall

she said it feels like the whole world

is up on my shoulders

feels like the whole world's coming down on me

how many bombs went off

cuz he just had to play his hand

his lot is a woman's duty

and she was always tougher than

she said who's gonna save them from you?

who's gonna save them from you?

i ain't gonna chase another stake until he's gone

so i bet she stood by him to the law

i bet she stood by him

when he was down on his knees

she said we're still alive

we are still alive

feels like the whole world

is up on my shoulders

feels like the whole world

is up on my shoulders

feels like the whole world's coming down on me

wide eye

venture so slowly

venture so slowly

why do i venture so slowly?

venture so slowly
