Favez - The Highways Are Deserted lyrics

So we held on to the railway As they stood up on the bench They said you'll hear it loud and clear If you don't flinch It's a brilliant piece of action It's a shudder then a thought It's like a life in technicolor Like the life you said we'd bought Where all the highways are deserted All the way to point alcaire We heard it howled across the airwaves With these drums and these guitars We're never high above the ocean We're just crawling underground All the highways are deserted man I can hardly feel the neck On my guitar And once the whole world was so barren They said there ain't no coming back To call it pale and unforgiven A bit of noise and a long ghost track And when they left us in the rubble We looked around at what we had And all the highways are deserted All the way to point Alcaire We heard it howled across the airwaves With these drums and these guitars We're never high above the ocean We're just crawling underground All the highways are deserted man I can hardly feel the neck On my guitar
