Green light
seven eleven
You stop in
for a pack of cigarettes
you don't smoke
don't even want to
Hey now
check your change
Dressed up
like a car crash
The wheels are turning
but you're upside down
You say when
he hits you
you don't mind
Because when
he hurts you
you feel alive
Oh no
Is that what it is?
Red lights
grey morning
You stumble out
of a hole in the ground
A vampire
or a victim
it depends
on who's around
You used to stay in
to watch the adverts
you could lip sync
to a talk show
And if you look
you look through me
And when you talk
it's not to me
And when I touch you
you don't feel a thing
If I could stay
then the night would
give you up
Stay
then the day would
keep it's trust
Stay
then the night
would be enough
Faraway
so close
Up with the static
and the radio waves
With satellite
television
you can go anywhere
Miami
New Orleans
London, Belfast
and Berlin
And if you listen
I can't call
And if you jump
you just might fall
And if you shout
I'll always hear you
If I could stay
then the night
would give you up
Stay
then the day would
keep it's trust
Stay
with the demons
you drown
Stay
With the spirit I found
Stay
and the night
would be enough
Wah ooooooh
Wah ooooooh
Wah ooooooh
Wah ooooooh
Three o'clock
in the morning
It's quiet
and there's
no-one around
Just the bang
and the clatter
as an angel
runs to ground
Just the bang
and the clatter
as an angel
hits the ground
