Lyrics

You
You
You
You
Old man at the back of the door
He says he's alright but he still wants more
There's a young man at the side of the house
He says he's okay, okay, okay
Old man at the back of the door
He says he's alright but he still wants more
There's a young man at the side of the house
He says he's okay, okay, okay
Is everybody okay?
We're all okay
We're okay, okay

Come, come Naveed, come, come Naveed
Come, come Naveed, come, come stay

Come, come Naveed, come, come Naveed
Come, come Naveed

Are you there, and is it comfortable?
And did you want to escape, try to escape the population?
The pressure is deceiving for you particularly
To let a young man die
Let him die if he wants to, die if he wants to

And I can't live here anymore
But it's hard when you reach for that floor
There's something that tears me inside, so I can't go

Brother are you there? Now tell me is it wonderful
Or were you hoping to find, hoping to find, something a little more?
Climbing down the hours and I need to know now
Do the hands of time only rule this chapter?
I'll have to try once again, oh I'll let them try when I want to, try when I want to

And I can't live here anymore
But it's hard when you reach for that floor
There's something that tears me inside
Oh I can't live here anymore, anymore, anymore

There he's on his knees again trying hard to understand
Why Naveed would let a young man die
Convinced that he might break he reaches for that phone
And then another day is gone

Oh another day is gone
Oh another day
Is gone, is gone, is gone, is gone
Is gone, is gone, is gone, is gone
Is gone, is gone, is gone, is gone
Is gone, is gone, is gone, is gone

And I can't live here anymore
But it's hard when you reach for that floor
There's something that tears me inside
No but I can't live here anymore

I can't live here anymore
I can't live here anymore
And I can't live here anymore
But I can't live here anymore, anymore
