Black Box Recorder Girl Singing in the Wreckage Lyrics

By Black Box Recorder, on their debut album #England Made Me#, 1998
It's my
primary instinct to protect the child
A E C#m D (transitory notes: d / c# / d/ c#)
Girl singing in the wreckage
My dress is torn, my hair is wild
Girl singing in the wreckage
My first kiss, my early boyfriend
Girl singing in the wreckage
Wet weekends, new years eve parties
Girl singing in the wreckage
(Am arpeggio)
Hour after hour after hour X2
My 18th birthday, I'll die of boredom
Girl singing in the wreckage
My private world is smashed right open
Girl singing in the wreckage
My 1st trip, my expectations
I had a dream that it would end like this
No destiny, No destination
A E C#m (tacet)
You hit the ground and then it stops
(Am arpeggio)
Hour after hour after hour X2
(Bm arpeggio)
Hour after hour after hour X2
I miss my hometown, it's nothing special
Call my parents let them know I've arrived
My primary instinct is to protect the child
Send the postcard from the airport
That s what I could figure out, but all comments welcome.
