Refinery

Tonight
Strung out like a hazy web of lights
Till the dawn
And the rain
Is falling all along the Rieperbahn
And you're gone

Ain't it strange
It seems like no one touches you these days
Must be unclean
And their words
Are haunting you like shadows veiled in steam
Neverending

And she shimmers from the sky
Like a million golden opportunities
All scattered on the ground
And floating in the gutters of your memory

She's written on the overpass
And her broken promise sleeps besides the factory
She's ugly in the dawn
And her dress flies on the fence below the refinery
Refinery

In the air
Anonymous and floating in your chair
You rewrite the story
What's your name?
And you tell them who you are
And why you came
And they believe you

Thinking back
On nights when you were just a broken doll
Behind the window
And you know
That no matter which way you decide to go
You're never going back there

And she shimmers from the sky
Like a million golden opportunities
All scattered on the ground
And floating in the gutters of your memory

She's written on the overpass
And her broken promise sleeps besides the factory
She's ugly in the dawn
And her dress flies on the fence
Below the refinery
