"On the Esplanade" Lyrics

On the esplanade
Down by the sea
Baby, watch my back
Think somebody's following me

I feel overcome
With trying to play it dead
Feel safe that way
Is it better than displaying instead?

It was a big slip for me
To roll up my golden life
She should have saved, saved my energy

I'm awake today
So nice to see the window
Wash my dreams away
I prop myself up on my pillow

Been through shaky times
But I'm glad you found your way
There was too much panic then
From here on it'll be straight all the way

It was a big slip for me
to roll up my golden life
She should have saved, saved my energy

Changing with time
I can wait for the sign
is this right?

They choose your side
but the day brings the
pride of the light

Oh with peace comes at night
I will never break from the shadow
inside, to be blinded

Changing with time
I can wait for the sign
is this right?
is this right?
