Amelia Curran - Face On The News lyrics

I had a fortress all pristine and blue And the doorways were painted in red And each tiny window reflections of you And the only way out was my head Can you imagine my misunderstanding I relied on relics and tombs And no one said nothing till we saw your face on the news I can make mountains where nothing there stands And I can make many ado Every stone is a missed altercation Still every height is a view I've stood in protest thorns against roses I don't mind intentions are true And no one said nothing till we saw your face on the news I had it all figured out I was right and they were wrong I looked for the difference And I found the difference was gone Over the decades and between the lines Nothing has left me alone I know the time pa**es grows up and trespa**es And we've all got fears of our own No need to ration a source of compa**ion and anything less I refuse 'Cause no one said nothing till we saw your face on the news
