Colorblind - Up Here lyrics

I’m living just next to a woman

I hardly know

And downstairs they don’t even know

I’m living up here

I’m listening to voices and noises

Through walls thin as tin

I never did see through their faces

Or where they have been

I think it’s a teacher

Whose name’s on the opposite door

And someone from Turkey is living

On the opposite floor

A man from Sri Lanka

Has just made his entry today

He told me his wife and his kids

Are not too far away

Chorus

I’m just pretending that life’s never ending

Up here, up here

I’m walking and talking and

Dreaming and screaming

Up here, up here

I’ve promised myself and

my friends

That I’m soon moving out

I’ve said it to I don’t know who

And I’ve said it quite loud

But honestly speaking,

I’m not being deeply sincere

In five years from know

I probably still live up here

Chorus

I’m just pretending that life’ s never ending

Up here, up here

I’m walking and talking and

Dreaming and screaming

Up here, up here

Just like a grumpy and lonely

Old zombie

Up here, up here

But we’re just pretending that life’s never ending

Up here, up here

Up here, up here

Up here, up here…
