Wash the Day Away Lyrics & Tabs by TV on the Radio
Wash the Day Away
guitar chords lyrics
Little flightless metal birds
High above in limbless tree
Echo from their tiny mouths
Ring out into the atmosphere
Creating beauty inadvertently
It was a technological feat
Wading through the market's waste
We locked eyes felt our loneliness abate
True desire showed its face
But only momentarily
Grey cascades in foreign waves
Wash the day away
I bought you flowers
From the dying woods of Brazil
While the kids burned down the greenhouse
I bought you flowers
From the dying woods of Brazil
While the kids burned down the greenhouse
Pushed the charred frame into the landfill
We bought new bodies
We bought diamond encrusted guns
Making out so high in the backseat
Of a car-bomb under carcinogenic sun
Grey cascades in foreign waves
Wash the day away
Grey cascades in foreign waves
We did believe in magic, we did believe
We let our souls act as canaries, our hearts gilded cages be
Watched a million dimming lanterns float out to sea
Lay your malady at the mouth of the death machine
Grey cascades in foreign waves
Wash the day away
Grey cascades in foreign waves
Wash the day away
