Streets are full as always
Park in autumn rays
See the world turn ‘round now
Go home, the day falls
A step into the lies of delight covering your face
You look pale, you look pale now – oh oh
A step in to the desolation closing in your life
You’re a strange – you’re a stranger, even more
Windows closed as always
Shadows surround
Stare into your coffee
A cold night, coming to town
Are you going home now?
The world still turns around
Streetlights on, the night falls
A step into the lies of delight covering your face
You look pale, you look pale now – oh oh
A step in to the desolation closing in your life
You’re a strange – you’re a stranger, even more
So there you go, you’re on your own
You’re standing there, not moving on
Your hair looks dull, your shoes are wrong
They laugh at you, you don’t belong
Sleep is gone as always
Halflight brings you home
Hear the morning birds
Oh you’re awake now
