Century

From U.F.O.F.2019

Lyrics

Century

Dogs eyes in the headlights of the driveway Cool autumn rain Bugs died on your windshield on the freeway Wonder if you'll be the same Centuries flower And we have the same power We have the same power We have the same power We have the same power Moth flies in the window of the kitchen You hang up your coat Cold lips and gold eyes listen There's something that I want you to know Turn on the shower 'Cause we have the same power We have the same power We have the same power We have the same power No resolution, no circling dove Still caught in the jaw of confusion Don't know what I'd do for love But stay another hour 'Cause we have the same power We have the same power We have the same power We have the same power
