Leave Me With the Monkeys Lyrics
Upstairs they have begun to sweep the floors
and night begins to speak of possibilities, silence promises
The city's full of storylines,
do I have to sing those rhymes?
Those possibilities, broken promises
Take away your easy jokes and leave me with the monkeys
I know every place to go and will not go for pennies
They talk to me on every screen
someone's always calling me
Is this a movie scene,
a movie moving scene?
My back is turned
against the call,
I drop my keys and kiss the floor
countless are the roads from here
but my heart is nowhere
and night begins to speak of possibilities, silence promises
do I have to sing those rhymes?
Those possibilities, broken promises
I know every place to go and will not go for pennies
someone's always calling me
Is this a movie scene,
a movie moving scene?
against the call,
I drop my keys and kiss the floor
countless are the roads from here
but my heart is nowhere

There are some parts where I think the words slightly differ. But maybe I have a different version, so here's what I hear:

My back is turned against the car, I draw my keys and kiss the floor countless are the roads from here but my heart is nowhere
