[Verse 1]

Watch the feathers fly up from your coat

You're like an angel, I need an angel

I get so weighted down somehow you float

Across the pavement

Across the pavement I've been stuck to so long

[Chorus]

And an ugly world suddenly

Seems almost beautiful now

Every drunken word is poetry

And weeds turn to flowers somehow

Up against the wind, you and me

It don't matter where we blow to

Even in this dark, I can see everything

I've lost inside you

[Post-Chorus]

Now splashing down every street I used to bleed in

With every doubt dripping out

This is where it's all been leading to tonight

[Verse 2]

Tonight I say it's like the city's ours

You say it's nowhere, I'm fine with nowhere

Smil as you exhale up toward the stars

And blow the dust out

And blow the dust across a sea of concrete

[Chorus]

And an ugly world suddenly

Seems almost beautiful now

Every drunken word is poetry

And weeds turn to flowers somehow

Up against the wind, you and me

It don't matter where we blow to

Even in this dark, I can see everything

I've lost inside you

[Post-Chorus]

Now splashing down every street I used to bleed in

With every doubt dripping out

This is where it's all been leading to tonight

[Bridge]

And there's no place I'd rather be

Than on this sidewalk, you and me

We could have it all, soaking in a summer night

While you're biting at raindrops

[Chorus]

And an ugly world suddenly

Seems almost beautiful now

Every drunken word is poetry

And weeds turn to flowers somehow

Up against the wind, you and me

It don't matter where we blow to

Even in this dark, I can see everything

I've lost inside you
