Lyrics
Thurso
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I made my escape
So I could believe in fate
And I tried counting all the days
And felt good for trying
I made my escape
Under the cover of an old lampshade
So that I could see the shape
Of a new horizon
I turn twenty and my dad
Turns fifty at my back
He makes up for all I lack
In facing darkness
But while I'm young and thin
I'll keep rushing round the bends
And I won't be slowing down
'Til I reach the ocean
See how far we came (as far as you want to come)
But we're still the same (not like the other ones)
I'd rather act my age (I'll be your only son)
See how far we came
It's nothing that I've said
But it's everything I meant
Everything that I depend on
Is slowly dying
And up among the hills
I don't need no fucking pills
I can drink away the ills
Of a working summer
See how far we came (as far as you want to come)
But we're still the same (not like the other ones)
You know I'll never change (I'll be your only son)
See how far we came
How can I believe anything they say
Anything they say?
How can I believe anything they say
Anything they say?
