Out There

Hear the sirens in a distant part of town
Hear the rumble of the freeway dying down
Someone calls me but the answer phone's turned down
I'm not sleepin' but there's sleepers all around

Hear the TV say the future's gettin' near
Everybody lives between their hope and fear
I can't tell if anyone is sincere
Lock the door and pull the covers up to here

It's dark out there

Footsteps echoing outside the door
Tomorrow's paper brings the same news as before
No one cares about the truth any more
Now the hurricane is racing to the shore

It's dark out there

Other people are in dream land
Other people are asleep
All the bad things in the world are just outside
I'm falling in too deep, I'm tryin' to get some sleep
