lyrics

Her home is a carpark, her neighbour’s DFS
Her face is a picture, her clothes are a mess
Nowhere to go, can’t go back where she’s been
It’s catch 22 but she’s only nineteen.

Hey Louisa!

She counts up her blessings, it only takes one hand
If silver doesn’t cut it her knife surely can
So sharpens up the steel, keeps her eyes on the door
She swears she’s never been here but she’s seen it all before

On the wrong side of nowhere - a place with no name
One thousand suns will arise to light her way home
Every night when she’s sleeping she sees herself die
With dust on her feet, blood on her fingers, despair in her eyes
As the dark closes in.

Can’t face tomorrow - sees the day out through a glass.
The future’s behind you – forever running, run to the past.

She knows you can throw caution to the wind, but it blows back in your face
You end up nothing more than a half-hearted disgrace
She bottles up her feelings and locks them all away
And writes in the sand all the things she cannot (should not) say.

Hey Louisa!

On the wrong side of nowhere - a place with no name
Taking a left at the back of beyond passed the point of no return
To the wrong side of nowhere - a place with no name
One thousand suns will arise - still so far from home
Every night when she’s sleeping she sees herself die
With dust on her feet, blood on her fingers, despair in her eyes
As the dark closes in.
