White Noise White Heat Lyrics - Elbow

I was born with trust 

That didn't survive the white noise of the lies 

The white heat of injustice has taken my eyes 

I just wanna get high 

I am the great collector 

I tally catalogue and hold to the light 

Forgotten scenes of love 

Some of them were mine 

All mine 

I pick the broken dreams that hang in city centre trees 

All the love made urgently that gathers in the gutters of your mind 

Some of it was mine 

All mine

I was born with trust 

That didn't survive the white noise of the lies 

The white heat of injustice has taken my eyes 

I just wanna get high 

I was born with trust 

That didn't survive the white noise of the lies 

The white heat of injustice has taken my eyes 

I just wanna get high 

I tried to save the world silly boy by sullen girl with love as a given 

Driven by my certainty 

That they'd never beat it out of me 

But who am I some Blarney Mantovani with a lullaby when the sky is falling in 

I believe I'm giving in 

Oh, the coldness of space with a suit that could do it 

I was born with trust 

That didn't survive the white noise of the lies 

The white heat of injustice has taken my eyes 

I just wanna get high 

I was born with trust 

That didn't survive the white noise of the lies 

The white heat of injustice has taken my eyes 

I just wanna get high
