Lyrics

Statues

You and I, we're two old and tortured souls
Repaired by a love of broken things
In a life, just some bodies growin' old
No fear of the end, of anything
We're just ordinary people, you and me
Time will turn us into statues eventually
We got by, though we never needed much
A sliver of hope, no diamond rings
We got high, it was Heaven it was Hell
Flyin' over them with broken wings
We're just ordinary people, you and me
Time will turn us into statues eventually
(Oh) just two ordinary people, you and me
Time will turn us into statues eventually
Our bones forever in stone
Monuments of life
To dust, as everything must
We fade away in time, oh
We're just ordinary people, you and me
Time will turn us into statues eventually
(Oh) just two ordinary people, you and me
(Oh) time will turn us into statues eventually
