James - Stripmining lyrics

When the world swallows whole all you've known There are no landmarks you can recognise Where is the j**el that will never fade Will not decay with old age Maybe a d**h, maybe a depression Those things you thought you could lean on Are suddenly just an impression Well, if you put your trust in things of dust You're gonna feel the pain of loss The pain of loss When the world swallows whole all you've known There are no landmarks you can recognise We've got no understanding of this body's needs We've got no understanding of real philosophy We've got no understanding of mortality So we keep putting our trust in things that rust And then we feel the pain of loss Keep putting our trust in things that rust And then i feel the pain of loss La la la loss
