Standing in the winter sun Waiting for the train Tallies clink in plastic bags Reminds me of the life I have Just haunting those dawn hallways Workers whisper fork tongued tales Who will be the first to run? Do you think you'll be the one that escapes? Will you escape? Can you escape? Another night of race to sleep The shooting stars no one sees Search the mirror for a sign Reflection with a black outline A city full of day time thieves They talk of hollow victories In the suburbs no alarm bells ring The famine happens quietly, no one escapes You won't escape We won't escape
2.
Reading all the lines on my lonely sister Looking for a sign to stay No static beaming out from the dead transistor Searching for radio waves I run when you call When I reach out you fall Try to be more than a blip on your radar But every day my signal fades No static beaming from the dead transistor Searching for radio waves I stumble on some clippings that you'd collected Filed and never seen again All that time together never dropped our defences Little battles always get in the way I run when you call When I reach out you fall Try to be more than a blip on your radar But every day my signal fades No static beaming from the dead transistor Searching for radio waves
3.
I wake up and it's windy after dreaming of a flood There are no divine commandments I am not the wrath of God But when I know that blood will flow God is my middle-man I lift the stone, God breaks the bone And then washes clean my hands We were God's ghost writers We were meeting once a week But in truth we never heard a word Because God doesn't speak The backyards flood, the waters wash the fence into the creek Whisper softly as you touch the child say "God says not to speak"
4.
I walk you home through the park I walk you home through the park You know I'd stab someone for you Right through the bones into the heart A silhouette in the window Weeping and whispers in the grass The swollen brook is bubbling over And twisted shapes float past It's cold and wet beneath the bridges And your lamp light is fading fast You just ride harder and harder Plunging your way into the dark
