In the Attic lyrics

[Verse 1]
I ran an' hid
In the attic
In the middle
Of a tornado
I watched the wind
Tear up the orchard
Tree by tree
Lay them gently down again

[Chorus]
Cities that shine like El Dorado
Now it's sleeping like a shadow
An' I can't wake it up again
The stars above you to shining roads
Now nothin' knows quite where it goes
An' I can't get to sleep again

[Verse 2]
I ran and hid
In the attic
In the middle
Of a tornado
I watched the wind
Tear the walls in
And the animals
They never feel so low again
[Chorus]
Cities that shine like El Dorado
Now it's sleeping like a shadow
An' I can't wake it up again
The stars above you to shining roads
Now nothin' knows quite where it goes
An' I can't get to sleep again

[Outro]
The stars above you to shine on queue
Now they're actin' a bit confused
An' I can't make 'em shine again
Oh no
