When The Lights Go Down
I CLOSE MY EYES AND I DREAM OF THIS
WHAT'S ON THE OTHER SIDE
I'M CATCHING UP ON SOME TIME I MISSED
WITH ALL MY FRIENDS WHO DIED
AND I'M THINKING ABOUT THE FUTURE
AND I DON'T SEE ME AT ALL
WHEN THE LIGHTS GO DOWN
RADIO MAN IS ASKING ME
IF THIS IS RIGHT OR WRONG
IF I COULD MAKE THAT DISTINCTION, MAN
I WOULDN'T WRITE THIS SONG
KEEPING UP ON A QUIET AND DISTANT FUTURE
AND I WON'T SEE YOU AT ALL
WHEN THE LIGHTS GO DOWN
WHEN YOUR FUCKED UP LIFE GETS TURNED AROUND
ALL YOU HEAR ARE TAINTED SOUNDS
WHEN THE LIGHTS GO DOWN
AND YOU'RE TIRED OF ALL THE SHIT YOU'RE TAKING NOW
THEY WILL TALK YOU UP WHEN YOU ARE IN THE GROUND
WHEN THE LIGHTS GO DOWN
