Lyrics Maximo Park – A Year Of Doubt

I wait behind the factory gates for you
To finish off your shift
Irate because you’re losing faith
Fortune is said to favour the brave

Are you bored or are you blind
Beware the contents of your mind

I wait to find a different race if so
Then will not compete
My pain is worth no more than yours
In time we give up on ourselves

Simple life is not an option
Try to define the word ‘satisfaction’

I wait behind the factory gates for you
To finish off your shift

Solitary confinement never sounded so good
You said that you were speechless
And God I wish you were

Too late to gather in the sails
Commit I face a year of doubt
Stand up to what we both despise
Forlorn is that we find a friend

Never pays to be complacent
Nature will always choose a replacement

I wait behind the factory gates for you
To finish off your shift
Irate because you’re losing faith
Fortune is said to favour the brave

Are you bored or are you blind
Beware the contents of your mind

I wait behind the factory gates for you

Solitary confinement never sounded so good
You said that you were speechless
And God I wish you were

I wait behind the factory gates for you
To finish off your shift
Irate behind the factory gates
