Abandon the Hospital

They told us the dam was gonna break To pack up all our things and evacuate As soon as we can You said that it would all be fine To stick around and enjoy the ride Life is short anyway The moms are all running and holding their kids Who knew that they'd never see home again And I didn't want to leave, but I still had answers To questions, I needed to know Abandon the hospital Leave the records to drown I'll get as far as I can from the ocean and then I'll build up my own sound Abandon the hospital It's my choice to make These sterilised walls make me wanna give up and The beds are all empty Anyway My fridge has been empty for a while You'd say I have to eat, then you'd smile that smile The flood came and turned it all to dust It's hard, it's really fucking hard But I must, I must, I must, I must The Sistene Chapel of your collarbone The David of your eyes It has all been lost to history And why am I surprised? I needed someone to grow old with 'Cause I still felt too young And at the gallows you said, "Don't leave me here" I cried, I turned and run Abandon the hospital It's time to go Away from the people who tried to care for me I'll die in bed alone Abandon the hospital It's my choice to make These sterilised walls make me wanna give up And the beds are all full Anyway Abandon the hospital It's time to grow old Away from the people who tried to care for me I'll die in bed alone Abandon the hospital It's my choice to make These sterilised walls make me wanna give up And the beds are all full Of people who need them More than me and more than you And we've still got dreams to live and lose So come on, let's go Get out of your bed For once, I will not accept an end Abandon the hospital Abandon the hospital Abandon the hospital Abandon the hospital Abandon the hospital Abandon the hospital Abandon the hospital Abandon the hospital
