Bush-Letting The Cables Sleep

You in the dark you in the pain you on the run
Living a hell living your ghost living your end
Never seem to get in the place that i belong
Don't want to lose the time
Lose the time to come
Whatever you say it's alright
Whatever you do it's all good
Whatever you say it's alright
Silence is not the way
We need to talk about it
If heaven is on the way
You in the sea on a decline breaking the waves
Watching the lights go down
Letting the cables sleep
Silence is not the way
We need to talk about it
If heaven is on the way
We'll wrap the world around it
If heaven is on the way
I'm a stranger in this town

In our headlights
staring, bleak
beer cans
deer's eyes

On the asphalt
underneath
our crushed plans
and my lies

Lonely street signs
power lines
they keep on flashing
flashing by

And we keep driving into the night
it's a late goodbye
such a late goodbye

And we keep driving into the night
it's a late goodbye

Your breath
hot upon my cheek
and we crossed
that line

You made me strong
when I was feeling weak
and we crossed
that one time

Screaming stop signs
staring wild eyes
keep on flashing
flashing by

And we keep driving into the night
it's a late goodbye
such a late goodbye
 
The devil grins from ear to ear when he sees the hand he's dealt us
points at your flaming hair and then we're playin' hide and seek

I can't breathe easy here 'less our trail's gone cold behind us
'til then the John mirror you stare at yourself grown old and weak

We keep driving into the night
it's a late goodbye
such a late goodbye

And we keep driving into the night
it's a late goodbye
such a late goodbye

 
And we keep driving into the night...
