Hiss Golden Messenger – Painting Houses Lyrics
Artist: Hiss Golden Messenger
Song: Painting Houses
Down on Colfax again
Lights all shining on the mess we made
Damn the neon, damn the rain
Damn the dollar, keep the change
We’re broke but we’re breathing
Running clean but I’m out of steam
Burning late like kerosene
And when there ain’t enough to count it
Get up on the roof
You’re painting houses
For as long as you can take it
Time’s creeping past the quarter moon
If it takes forever, I guess we’ll be there soon
And still you hum that old tune
“I Don’t Wanna Talk About It”
At this hour there’s nowhere left to go
Walk a mile in the dirty snow
Hitch a ride to the Broken Arrow
Running clean but I’m out of steam
Flying past the factories
They say a new day’s coming
I don’t doubt it
I’m stuck on the roof
Still painting houses
Tears run down, they overflow
Coming out in stereo
So turn it up a little louder
As living proof, the fire ain’t out yet
