|
I don't know if I can find a way to keep |
|
All the secrets that you told me in your sleep |
|
And I'm amazed that you still find the space to dream |
|
In the shadows of a town made out of thieves |
|
Who would drown the sound of history repeating |
|
With the ambulances screaming up the street |
|
So sing to me |
|
Don't let me fall asleep to the sound of cold machines |
|
Or the smell of gasoline |
|
Or the weight of destiny |
|
Don't make me wait |
|
I've been waiting here all night |
|
I've been waiting my whole life |
|
Somewhere the ghosts of factory workers dance |
|
With the ghosts of kids who never had a chance |
|
And we still hear it out our window every night |
