Gorgeous/grotesque Lyrics - Running From A Gamble - Company Of Thieves

There's nothing more gorgeous or grotesque than the sight of the garbage dumped on the sides of the railroad tracks 

In the morning, on my way to work, I see them- little lumps- just glittering in the sunshine 

What a messy way to say thank you 

What a messy way to say anything 

Oh, we need a closeness 

There's nothing more helpless or hopeless than the birds of the city streets, with the dirt on their heavy wings 

In the evening, on my way to sleep, I hear them- screaming out into a bitter melody 

What a messy way to say thank you 

What a messy way to say anything 

Oh, we need a closeness 

'Cause when I wake 

I am so far from reach 

I am so far from 

Ah, we need a closeness, a harmless closeness 

Oh we need a closeness, a harmless closeness!
