lyrics

Been running the stairs again
You stop every now and then
And wonder what you’re doing here

As people come pushing past
The next train is coming fast
You wish that you could disappear

Through the doors you’re running blind
Shut your eyes to ease your mind
It’s time to start another day

No-one looks you in the face
They stare into middle space
As the train makes you swing n’ sway

Your bruised fingertips still remind you how hard it is
To climb this wall that gleams with hopes and dreams
Your fingertips will heal with time

Been dreaming of green again
It’s hard to remember when
You had time to feel the breeze blow

You’re off to the jumpstart
Of this big old city’s heart
To make its gilded blood flow

Your bruised fingertips still remind you how hard it is
To climb this wall that gleams with hopes and dreams
Your fingertips will heal with time

Everybody feels the same as you, they do
So take some time out to enjoy the view, it’s true
You’ve come so far so don’t lose heart

Your bruised fingertips still remind you how hard it is
To climb this wall that gleams with hopes and dreams
Your fingertips will heal with time
