Lyrics of 'Trainers' by Canterbury

We've been told that, yeah, we've heard,
That we can start all this with just one word.
Surprising then that no one's talking
Clear as charcoal.
Weeks go by and still no luck,
Shall we just hibernate till the air warms up
Beside ourselves from the cold shoulder?
This is no good.

Me and my friends, we're all just waiting for this waiting to end.
Can't you see why you can't even imagine? just try to imagine.
Me and my friends, we're tired and we're still feeling lost and restrained.
Can't you see this time is consuming? time is consuming.

Wishful thinking's all we have.
All is well until reality checks you out.
It's feeding time but no one's hungry.
No one's hungry.
How we've changed and how we've grown;
You have to learn to duck when fists get thrown.
Timing could be more forgiving,
More forgiving.

Me and my friends, we're all just waiting for this waiting to end.
Can't you see why you can't even imagine? just try to imagine.
Me and my friends, we're tired and we're still feeling lost and restrained.
Can't you see this time is consuming? time is consuming.

Try to imagine.
Me and my friends, we're all just waiting for this waiting to end.
Can't you see why you can't even imagine? we're trying to imagine.
Me and my friends, we're tired and we're still feeling lost and restrained.
Can't you see this time is consuming? time is consuming.
