Edwyn Collins - Subsidence lyrics

You may find as I have found This place is neither safe nor sound This house of cards will tumble down As befits a cardboard town You're lost in the ruins of your mind As these four walls collide, as your whole world subsides But you took it all in your stride As a matter of course, not a matter of pride So raise your gla**, let's celebrate 'Cause we can force those hands of fate No need to heed the call for greed, for acquisition Now I ain't puttin' you on, this is my genuine position You're lost in the ruins of your mind As these four walls collide, as your whole life subsides But you took it all in your stride As a matter of course, not a matter of pride How can I thank you? We're forever in your debt We'll bite the hand of fate that feeds us Morsels of regret You're lost in the ruins of your mind As these four walls collide, as your whole world subsides But you took it all in your stride As a matter of course, not a matter of pride As a matter of course, not a matter of pride
