Self imposed summer of misery
Left in methodical communities
You think I would have realized
Our lives only turn clockwise
Take us out for a drink
Need to step out of sync for awhile
Twilight on the beltway
Till the street lights animate

Dash around, drowned and lost in space city
Waking the restless ones they were abandoned
Six forty one and words they keep fading
We'll break the stillness set by modern man
Pursue me down the red light halls before the imminent dawn arrives
Abandon all control and all you're left with is feeling alive

"Don't you talk shit"
You say, taking a bit too much of what Dave said to heart
With a crass smile
Bearing your teeth in style
Don't know why when we're all indecent, same as you
Feel a typical need
To bite off more than we knew
Settle things over brews
"We're systematically screwed"
Try and break up a fight
Listening to "Saturday Night's"
Give in to the last shot
What else is new?

Dash around, drowned and lost in space city
Waking the restless ones they were abandoned
Six forty one and words they keep fading
We'll break the stillness set by modern man
Pursue me down the red light halls before the imminent dawn arrives
Abandon all control and all you're left with is feeling alive

Our backsides to Baker Street
We're running again
The star lights start to fade
Decay into the night
Black skies
Headlights
Predestined to change so just take it in while you can

Dash around, drowned and lost in space city
Waking the restless ones that were abandoned
Two forty five and words they keep fading
We'll break the stillness set by modern man
Pursue me down the red light halls before the imminent dawn arrives
Abandon all control and all you're left with is feeling alive
And all the chaos in the room is waiting for the roof to fall
After you find me on the balcony; avoiding protocol
