I packed two backpacks and got the tickets at the counter
I want to head North with you
We’ll find a seal together and gut a seal
Climb inside and make ourselves a bed

At last you’ll close your inflamed eyes
At last you’ll unclench those lips chewed bloody
At last you’ll fall asleep, and the factory smokestacks
Won’t touch you with their shadow at dawn

And in the morning you won’t first reach for the knife
And I’m almost sure of it - you’ll start your day with a smile
We both agree the city is a sophisticated kind of torture

And let all these people rot on the Black Sea
Oily, like human broth
You and I are going North to the White
Just the two of us

Farther from the city, farther from the scum
Of these new housing blocks. Farther North
Come on, let’s leave - no one will notice
Farther and farther and farther North

Farther from the city, farther from the scum
Of these new housing blocks. Farther North
Come on, let’s leave - no one will notice
Farther and farther and farther North
