Bright Lights
White chalk melting into
The ground where we stood
And felt the dust turn in our eyes
The sun strips this city bare
Stars pale here, and there's
The tallest building in the world
We're just passing through this place
All our punches go to waste
Watch the hours go down the drain
20 floors, we're up in space
Speeding cars keep me awake
They don't seem to trouble you
Bolt down the doors
Close the shutters, hold me close
All the bright lights left me cold
As the night turns into day
Everything falls into place
Yet I dream of nothing
Looking out, it's all the same
Cities hung on swinging cranes
I watch them float away
Bolt down the doors
Close the shutters, hold me close
All the bright lights left me cold
Bolt down the doors
Close the shutters, hold me close
All the bright lights left me cold
The ground where we stood
And felt the dust turn in our eyes
The sun strips this city bare
Stars pale here, and there's
The tallest building in the world
We're just passing through this place
All our punches go to waste
Watch the hours go down the drain
20 floors, we're up in space
Speeding cars keep me awake
They don't seem to trouble you
Bolt down the doors
Close the shutters, hold me close
All the bright lights left me cold
As the night turns into day
Everything falls into place
Yet I dream of nothing
Looking out, it's all the same
Cities hung on swinging cranes
I watch them float away
Bolt down the doors
Close the shutters, hold me close
All the bright lights left me cold
Bolt down the doors
Close the shutters, hold me close
All the bright lights left me cold
