Gorgeous/Grotesque Songtext

There's nothing more helpless or hopeless
than the birds of the city street
with the dirt on their heavy wings
In the evening, on my way to sleep
I hear them, screaming out
into a bitter melody

I think, what a messy way to say thank you
What a messy way to say anything
Oh, we need a closeness

'Cause when I wake,
I am so far from reach
I am so far from...

Oh, we need a closeness!
A heartless closeness!
Oh, we need a closeness!
A heartless closeness!
