white noise white heat

i was born with trust

that didn't survive the white noise of the lies

the white heat of injustice has taken my eyes

i just wanna get high

i am the great collector

i tally catalogue and hold to the light

forgotten scenes of love

some of them were mine

all mine

i pick the broken dreams that hang in city centre trees

all the love made urgently that gathers in the gutters of your mind

some of it was mine

all mine

i was born with trust

that didn't survive the white noise of the lies

the white heat of injustice has taken my eyes

i just wanna get high

i was born with trust

that didn't survive the white noise of the lies

the white heat of injustice has taken my eyes

i just wanna get high

i tried to save the world silly boy by sullen girl with love as a given

driven by my certainty

that they'd never beat it out of me

but who am i some blarney mantovani with a lullaby when the sky is falling in

i believe i'm giving in

oh

the coldness of space with a suit that could do it

i was born with trust

that didn't survive the white noise of the lies

the white heat of injustice has taken my eyes

i just wanna get high

i was born with trust

that didn't survive the white noise of the lies

the white heat of injustice has taken my eyes

i just wanna get high
