Lie down in the road
We admire these street lights,
That wash out the stars.
Free taxi to heaven
From the grace of a stranger
In their passing car.
Touch my pulse,
And feel the violence
Where the calm once was and
Stretch out my eyes
For the first time.

You always say you've had enough
That I always drink too much
But I have no will,
And there's no way,
I'm ever gonna change.

With nowhere to go,
We parade down the street,
Shut all windows and doors.
So we feel at home
When we lock,
When we shut,
Out the silent peaceful.
I don't feel cold
But my hairs stand on end
To keep me warm and
Open my mind for the first time.

You always say you've had enough
That I always drink too much
I'm on my own,
I've lost my way,
I need you to come make everything okay.
I have no will,
And there's no way,
I'm ever gonna change.

Touch my pulse
And feel the violence
Where the calm once was and
Stretch out my eyes
For the first time.
