LAILA AV REYNI - Mediocre Falls

Music and Lyrics: Søren Graversen og Helene Bak Standing on the outskirts of nowhere else to go With a pocketful of sins and a ticket to a long gone show Entangled in the gateways of Mediocre Falls Waiting for a hollow humdrum life Life laid out in squares but going round and round in circles Taking off from solid ground Now's my time to turn around Walk away, go astray, it's okay To break somebody's heart, when you follow your own Silent fences fighting to keep everything apart Houses sit alone, staring at the neat and tidy yards Eager welcome mats all with goodbye attitude I retaliate the windows' empty glare The ringing of the school bell would push impatiently Books cried out from shelves spitting words after me Skipping ropes and hopscotch was all we ever knew Dreams would fade and hope was out of bounds
