Tunnels Lyrics - Singles - Johnny Flynn

I knew no vices and I knew no sins 

I knew the words but they didn't sink in 

Stayed out those tunnels that pull people down 

There's more of those tunnels in your home town 

Fell far from grace, so far I couldn't see 

And oh, underground, I wasn't that far from the tree 

We're all digging if you wanna know 

Fixing, digging far too slow, far too slow 

We dug for money, we shoveled four tons 

And the end wasn't funny though we'd all had fun 

Limping and broken the tunnel fell in 

I've been limping from tunnels since my original sin 

Birthright's a trouble, my father dug too 

He got where he was going at the age of sixty two

We're all digging if you wanna know 

Fixing, digging far too slow, far too slow 

A new pair of boots and a chisel in your name 

Says we could be in the same hole attracting the same blame 

If I knew the way to the ornamental tree 

I would tell you, we'd be jailbirds, I'd be winking twice for free 

Don't call on your brother, odds are he's here and all 

Being gentle with the people who were knock-kneed from the fall

We're all digging if you wanna know 

Fixing, digging far too slow, far too slow 

We're all digging if you wanna know 

Fixing, digging far too slow, far too slow
