Coming
from another world,
year can be a day
Turn your eyes to everyone,
and come here anyway
We're the evenings drawing tight
by the planets in the tide
I like to be here in the dark,
in the artificial light
And calm when you arrive,
and calm when you arrive
I can set you by the firelight,
you can tell me what you like
All the lights under
the engine
Lights clicking on and off
Low lights, radios and empty minds
We were brought into a world,
a world without an end
Where the roads went on forever
And the evening never fell
But our heads pick up such static
We must clear it on our own
We'll pull the streets
in close enough
To stack up all the homes
And all will be aligned
And all will be alright
We can meet under the streetlights
In a world that we designed
All my life
Under the electric lights
Clicking on and off of lights
Ra dio's an empty life
We were bound to grow
Cover our whole world in gold
From my window I can see
into the future
One electric nest glows
into the darkness
Burns the chill out of the night
The trouble that it might invite
We are turning left to Park Road
