"The Show" lyrics

"The Show"

Stumbling around on the visceral plain
Worn to my cosmic bones
Call you on the telephone
I'm a thousand miles away from you
And my call's not getting through
Couldn't leave well enough alone

Try to find a song to sing
I wanna hear some rock and roll tonight
I wanna hear the speakers ring
I wanna be strong enough to say I ain't afraid
But there's a black hole in the shape of you
Running around my brain

I'm taking off my show tonight
Turn off the flash
The neon sign
Crawl through the city till I find your side...
I'm coming

Something about this music I hear
And the way I make it up with you
The sound wants to carry thru
Shine a light on the darkest hour
Find my way down the rocky road
That always leads me home to you

Stops your heart takes your breath away
I feel the sorrow of a million tears
The evolution of a million fears
And when the world's on fire
There are days I couldn't make it along
But for the song

I'm taking off my show tonight
Turn off the flash
The neon sign
Crawl through the city till I find your side...
I'm coming
I'm coming

Look for the light on the other side
And even though I can't see it yet
I'll get as close as I can get
I wanna be strong enough to believe I am enough...

I'm taking off my show tonight
Turn off the flash
The neon sign
Crawl through the city till I find your side...
I'm coming
I'm coming
