LYRICS
I'm not alone cause the TV's on, yeah
I'm not crazy cause I take the right pills everyday
And rest, clean your conscious, clear your thoughts, with speyside with your grain
Clean your conscious, clear your thoughts, with speyside
Chorus
Salt, sweat, sugar on the asphalt
Our hearts littering the topsoil
Tune in, and we can get the last call
Our lives, our coal
Salt, sweat, sugar on the asphalt
Our hearts, yeah littering the topsoil
Sign up, the picket line of the parade
Our lives

Bled, from my arm
Won't they give it a rest now? Give it a reast now?
Now, now, now...
