Tunnels lyrics

Artist  : Johnny Flynn 
Song : Tunnels



 Send "Tunnels" Ringtone to your Cell 

 I knew no vices and I knew no sins

I knew the words but they didn't sink in

Stayed out those tunnels that pull people down

There's more of those tunnels in your home
town

Fell far from grace, so far I couldn't see

And oh, underground, I wasn't that far from the
tree



We're all digging if you wanna know

Fixing, digging far too slow, far too slow



We dug for money, we shoveled four tons

And the end wasn't funny though we'd all had
fun

Limping and broken the tunnel fell in

I've been limping from tunnels since my original
sin

Birthright's a trouble, my father dug too

He got where he was going at the age of sixty
two



We're all digging if you wanna know

Fixing, digging far too slow, far too slow



A new pair of boots and a chisel in your name

Says we could be in the same hole attracting the
same blame

If I knew the way to the ornamental tree

I would tell you, we'd be jailbirds, I'd be
winking twice for free

Don't call on your brother, odds are he's here
and all

Being gentle with the people who were knock-kneed
from the fall



We're all digging if you wanna know

Fixing, digging far too slow, far too slow



We're all digging if you wanna know

Fixing, digging far too slow, far too slow
