Neon God
And I was worn out
From the side effects
Looking for a way out
But couldn't read the map
Tried to figure out
Where the path would lead
With the neon god
Watching over me
Leave the keys on the dresser
We can talk all night
Keep the TV playing
But turn off the light
If you want to sell your secrets
Please be my guest
Just as long as you stay
I'll work out the rest
And I came adrift
Like I was lost at sea
As the waves moved in
And washed over me
And the night had a weight
That kept a hold of me
With the neon god
Watching over me
Write the words on the paper
So that no one sees
We'll figure out the prescription
To satisfy your needs
If you've a painkilling preference
To counteract your vise
It's just a matter of choosing
And then paying the price
And the lights were out
High above the street
As the rain poured down
Washing over me
Running from my arms
Running out of faith
Looking for a way
To escape my fate
And the signs lit up
And they drew my gaze
Took me from myself
Into another state
As the rain poured down
And washed over me
With the neon god
Watching over me
How long now
How long must I wait
How much now
How much will it take
Burned out
From visions too bright
Blinded
By my second sight
Drawn out
Inevitably
Fallen
From what could have been
Calling
Out to the night
Waiting
To find the light
And the night was long
And the stars went away
And the day belonged
To those thoughts kept at bay
And its eyes appeared
Like a wound in space
And their colours blazed
All about my face
And it called to me
From high above the street
As the rain poured down
Washing over me
And the neon god
Watched over me
And the neon god
Watched over me
From the side effects
Looking for a way out
But couldn't read the map
Tried to figure out
Where the path would lead
With the neon god
Watching over me
Leave the keys on the dresser
We can talk all night
Keep the TV playing
But turn off the light
If you want to sell your secrets
Please be my guest
Just as long as you stay
I'll work out the rest
And I came adrift
Like I was lost at sea
As the waves moved in
And washed over me
And the night had a weight
That kept a hold of me
With the neon god
Watching over me
Write the words on the paper
So that no one sees
We'll figure out the prescription
To satisfy your needs
If you've a painkilling preference
To counteract your vise
It's just a matter of choosing
And then paying the price
And the lights were out
High above the street
As the rain poured down
Washing over me
Running from my arms
Running out of faith
Looking for a way
To escape my fate
And the signs lit up
And they drew my gaze
Took me from myself
Into another state
As the rain poured down
And washed over me
With the neon god
Watching over me
How long now
How long must I wait
How much now
How much will it take
Burned out
From visions too bright
Blinded
By my second sight
Drawn out

From what could have been

Waiting

And the night was long
And the stars went away
And the day belonged
To those thoughts kept at bay
And its eyes appeared
Like a wound in space
And their colours blazed
All about my face
And it called to me
From high above the street
As the rain poured down
Washing over me
And the neon god
Watched over me
And the neon god
Watched over me
