Lights Come Up III

Verse

Grey sky through the fire exit glass

Bass still warm on my jaw line

Doorman's whistle, one last call

Coats gone, streetlights flicker out

Taxis idle at the kerb edge

My heels are killing me now

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it falling away?

Shadows thin where daylight stays

Chorus

Lights come up, lights come up

Gold on grey through the fog

Hands still shaking, heart in my mouth

Lights come up, we don't stop

Verse 2

Eyes half shut under a hood

Last cup of something hot and bad

Floor's sticky from spilled juice good

Someone's shouting for the cab that never came

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it falling away?

Shadows thin where daylight stays

Chorus

Lights come up, lights come up

Gold on grey through the fog

Hands still shaking, heart in my mouth

Lights come up, we don't stop

Bridge

Windows glow like a row of eyes

Streetlamps blink and die one by one

Sky's turning pink on the other side

We keep moving till it's done

Chorus

Lights come up, lights come up

Gold on grey through the fog

Hands still shaking, heart in my mouth

Lights come up, we don't stop
