lyrics

The streetlights are out
And I wanna know how it came to be
We wander around
Just a little time is all we need
The city blinds the sky again
The stars hide in the clouds, but then
We pull over, and there’s thunder
And here we are stuck in a dream again

My thoughts are moving at the speed of light
My bones are made of glass tonight

Staring straight at the sound
And I wanna know what it really means
There’s trash all over the ground
And very little time to make it clean
The osprey’s flying south again
The roots grow through the ground and then
There’s thunder, the skies open
And here we are caught in the rain again

My thoughts are moving at the speed of light
My bones are made of glass tonight

Don’t let the incredible smoke and light show fool you now
Don’t let that book of shadows bring you down

Just a little time is all we need
Just a little time

Don’t let the incredible smoke and light show fool you now
Don’t let that book of shadows bring you down
