|
Green light, seven eleven |
|
You stop in for a pack of cigarettes |
|
You don't smoke, don't even want to |
|
Hey now, check your change |
|
Dressed up like a car crash |
|
The wheels are turning but you're upside down |
|
You say when he hits you, you don't mind |
|
Because when he hurts you, you feel alive |
|
Oh, is that what it is? |
|
Red lights, gray morning |
|
You stumble out of a hole in the ground |
|
A vampire or a victim |
|
It depends on who's around |
|
You used to stay in to watch the adverts |
|
You could lip sync to the talk shows |
|
And if you look, you look through me |
|
And when you talk it's not to me |
|
And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing |
|
If I could stay... then the night would give you up |
|
Stay, and the day would keep its trust |
|
Stay, and the night would be alive |
|
Faraway, so close |
|
Up with the static on the radio |
|
With satellite television |
|
You can go anywhere |
|
Miami, New Orleans, London, Belfast and Berlin |
|
And if you listen I can't call |
|
And if you jump, you just might fall |
|
And if you shout I'll only hear you |
|
If I could stay... then the night would give you up |
|
Stay and the day would keep its trust |
|
Stay with the demons you drowned |
|
Stay with the spirit I found |
|
Stay and the night would be alive |
|
Three o'clock in the morning |
|
It's quiet and there's no one around |
|
Just a bang and a clatter |
|
As an angel runs to ground |
|
Just a bang and a clatter |
|
As an angel hits the ground |
