Violet skies
10 AM
Falling on my knees again
Outside in the underground
Proud in the rain
I'm walking a straight line
Stepped on all of the cracks this time
I don't care I'm not moving aside
For anyone
Outside in the undergroud
Proud in the rain
Outside in the underground
There's no way out of here today
I raise my head up to the sky again
And make my way alone
I'm never home
But I stopped searching
'Cause the city told me so
It all comes down
Down to me
Oh, I've got a hundred lives
Oh, I've got to get it right
Oh, who knows someday I might
Oh, I've got to get it right (outside in the underground)
In the undergroud
Proud in the rain
Outside in the underground
There's no way out of here, oh no way
I raise my head into the sky again
And make my way alone
I'm never home
But I stopped searching
'Cause the city told me
It all comes down
Down to me
Oh, I've got a hundred lives
Oh, I've got to get it right
Oh, who knows someday I might
Oh, I've got to get it right
