|
Just as the moment arrived |
|
Became a second a fall |
|
It wasn't over then |
|
I want some light to come in |
|
They looked older besides |
|
Coming down behind |
|
Was I the only one? |
|
Was I the only one? |
|
They were waiting down by the second street stop |
|
Again |
|
Was it the first time I had ever seen anyone |
|
Was I alone? |
|
And on the wrong side looking for you |
|
Underneath the concrete there ain't no place to move |
|
They'd stolen all of our wings |
|
Beneath a golden ring |
|
It was the kind you'd use |
|
It was the kind you'd use |
|
I was waiting down |
|
And the second I stopped |
|
The walls started closing in |
|
I'd already given everything |
|
Was I alone? |
|
I was awake |
|
For the last time ready to run |
|
Run until the concrete stops |
|
Stop and give in |
|
There's no way to win |
|
There's nothing to win |
|
Last time I had been there waiting |
|
Overcast and summer day |
|
Back to nowhere |
|
Up to know you |
|
Now I'm needed suddenly |
|
They couldn't find the cause |
|
If there was only one |
|
And if they're waiting for you |
|
And they'll be watching for you |
|
Were they still down by the second street stop? |
|
And then, was it the only time I had ever seen anyone |
|
Or was I alone? |
|
Was I too late? |
|
For a moment I was forced to choose |
|
Underneath the concrete looking for some space to move |
|
I could be running to the sidewalk's end for the rest of my days |
|
Looking for the faintest light, slipping away |
|
Slipping away |
|
Away, away |
