Come close to the eye, the dam, I'd only see you Here for my side of my lord of my blue screen blues There's a path headed out to the bright lights And a myriad suede And no dice for the radio silence And our pirate ways And I'm a far and away now vagrant And drifted off course Settled into a concrete rhythm Be slow in close And in the hands of a foreign danger And in the enemy's fire And as close as you've come to living In a long, long time And I dreamed the voices they were calling out to you Come alive, come alive, and the firings Where everything is true Oh… Oh… And everything is true… Sleep now on the bed that so feigns my breath Don't dream of the days we've given up Let that sun slip Come and dance by the armored soldiers For the menace of peace Come and stand by the ghetto blasters Playing f** the police In a way we're a lot like strangers
At the end of our rope In a way this lonesome chasm is Holding close There's a fire in the batting cages For the rest of our time Come alive, come alive, cause you'll never know When something is right Avert your eyes, forever love is true Avert your eyes if everything we love we lose Oh… Oh… And everything is true And everything to lose Close your eyes Not giving out And just enough Oh go to nuts Hold it down Oh hold for more But I know you'll never, die I'll never leave you in the gutter Know you'll never die, I'll never leave you in the gutter Close enough, not giving up I just announced, not good, too rough Hold it down, oh hold for more So I know you'll never die I'll never leave you in the gutter No you'll never die I won't see you again No you'll never die I won't see you again Oh no, no, no, I won't see you again…
