"Left & Right In The Dark" lyrics
"Left & Right In The Dark"
I'm running in the parking lot, I'm four years old
I am lost, those were the days
The soft murmur of voices in the other room
Comforting you as you fall asleep
Staring at the mother-daughter clones go by
We're in a race against time, and time might be winning
And it's not gonna take all day long
Watching the urban decay all around us, oh boy
And I'm on my way...oh, somewhere
Feels like I'm going left and right in the dark
How long must we wait, how long must this stay
Oh wake up, wake up
Oh wake up, wake up
Oh wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
I'm ashamed I think maybe sometimes
I might have used tricks to make you like me more
When I found you I was running wild
"Let's get out of here"
Was in trouble there
I want to know, what are you thinking
Cause I think I think it too
Sliding across the Indian wilderness
Like the wind gliding down soft roads
6 AM now you're in Hollywood
And you're dancing, we made it
We are turning back the Earth so fast
But it feels a lot slower
And it's not gonna take all day long
Watching the urban decay all around us, oh boy
And I'm on my way...oh, somewhere
Feels like I'm going left and right in the dark
How long will it take, to fix what they break
Oh wake up, wake up
Oh wake up, wake up
Oh wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Your Achilles heel is you like to feel your fingers on the wheel
Some live in a palace, some live in the sewers
The director, the actor, the crew, and the viewers
Boys get their toys and girls got their dolls
And nothing much else changes through the final stages
How you're spending the day is the same as your life
And you're watching the time running away
Oh wait up, wait up
Oh wait up, wait up
Oh wait up, wait up
Wait up, wait up
Oh wake up, wake up
Oh wake up, wake up
Oh wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up

The Libertines - "Music When The Lights Go Out" Is it cruel or kind
Not to speak my mind
And to lie to you
Rather than hurt you
Well I'll confess all of my sins
After several large gins
But still I'll hide from you,
Hide what's inside from you...
MGMT - "Alien Days" Sometimes the windows combine with the seams in a way
That twitches on a peak at the place where the spirit was slain
Hey. One foot leads to another
Night's for sleep, blue curtains, covers
Sequins...
Deerhunter - "Revival" I am saved, I'm saved
And, oh, would you believe it?
On the third day
I felt his presence near me
I know they won't believe me, but
I've got favorite memories
I am saved, I'm saved
And, oh, could...
The Garden - "AMPM Truck" It about started when I saw that AMPM truck
Swerving to a nightmare and I almost got us fucked
Shouldn't of been dozing but I pushed myself too hard
I thought I knew better yeah but I took it too...
