Tuff Love - Penguin lyrics

[Verse 1] Saw the light I'd heard so much about On the motorway heading south And it came through the night, above the trees and I heard a choir Each voice was louder than the last I was on that bus while she hummed her lullaby Still I couldn't go to sleep Those distant lights bled into the sky The whole carriage shook Still I couldn't sleep [Chorus] Don't try to rock me to sleep now I refuse to be torn from everything in this life I just learned how to be cold, how to breathe and how to live, how to die and be reborn [Verse 2] I was the meat in a sandwich The sky and the earth were bread She swallowed me up poor mother It had been so long since she'd fed To be swept up in her current To leave the land for dead What more what more Could anybody wish for [Chorus] Don't try to rock me to sleep now I refuse to taking time from everything in this life, just learn how to be cold How to breathe and how to live How to die miserable
