Lyrics: I was born Under strikes Where I lost my mind And lost my sight I was born Under strikes Where I lost my way I lost my mind And I have lived in The finest times But I gave it up Just to wait in line I was born in the dark of night Where I made my signs And I made my life Under the strikes Under the strikes x4 You were born under blue skies But you lost your way and you lost your mind I cracked my ribs but I found my spine We truly lived in the best of times I once made my perfect home Where I found myself but ate alone I once knew all your names But I sold them off and went insane Under the strikes x4 Under the strikes Ma once told me don’t despair Seasons change into the winter air A lion lifts to leave the room And all our days are gone to soon I once thought we had time to spare Seasons come in a winter air A lion lists and leaves the room And all our days are gone to soon I once thought there was time to spare Seasons turn in the winter air A lions lists and leaves the room And all our days are gone to soon #yannisphilippakis #tonyallen #underthestrikes
