lyrics

I stand on the platform
The 9:21 is showing due
At 9:29
Hypodermic
Railway sleepers tell the time

I move through the city
In tubes of white
And crimson blue
(how 'bout you?)
And left of the staircase
A video's playing a dream at you

Don't get me wrong
I'm not complaining
But still
You know...
It's not what I thought
That success would look like

I open a doorway
And step into
A marble hall
(don't we all?)
And follow the pathways
Where cubicle melody does fall

Don't get me wrong
I'm not complaining
But still
You know...
It's not what I thought
That success would look like
Not what I thought
That it all would be like

We stand in a barroom
Pints of lager in our hands
And soon on the platform
We'll be playing a one night stand

Don't get me wrong
I'm not complaining
But still
You know...
It's not what I thought
That success would look like
Not what what I thought
That success would look like
