Concrete Loop Insomnia (versión 2)

Verse

Level three, then two, then three again

Ticket stamped at four fifteen

Fluorescent tube hums out of time

Same white line, same crooked sign

Engine idles, exhaust hangs thick

Headlights strobe the concrete ribs

Barrier arm won't lift for me

Red light stuck where green should be

Pre-Chorus

Tell me when the arm goes up

Tell me when the gate lets go

Tell me why the ramp curls back

Down to where I've already been

Chorus

Concrete loop, insomnia

Ramp spins slow, insomnia

Every floor looks like the floor before

Concrete loop insomnia

Verse

Meter ticking, coins run out

Pillar numbers, worn and doubt

Four becomes eleven, eleven's gone

Same tired engine, same white dawn

Mirror shows the wheel I hold

Knuckles pale, the night gone cold

Nowhere down and nowhere up

Just the hum that won't shut up

Pre-Chorus

Tell me when the arm goes up

Tell me when the gate lets go

Tell me why the ramp curls back

Down to where I've already been

Chorus

Concrete loop, insomnia

Ramp spins slow, insomnia

Every floor looks like the floor before

Concrete loop insomnia

Bridge

The gate was open the whole time

I chose the ramp, I chose the climb

Nobody's holding the wheel but me

Concrete keeps what concrete claims

Chorus

Concrete loop, insomnia

Ramp spins slow, insomnia

Every floor looks like the floor before

Concrete loop insomnia
