I CLOSE MY EYES AND I DREAM OF THIS
WHAT'S ON THE OTHER SIDE
I'M CATCHING UP ON SOME TIME I MISSED
WITH ALL MY FRIENDS WHO DIED
AND I'M THINKING ABOUT THE FUTURE
AND I DON'T SEE ME AT ALL
WHEN THE LIGHTS GO DOWN
RADIO MAN IS ASKING ME
IF THIS IS RIGHT OR WRONG
IF I COULD MAKE THAT DISTINCTION, MAN
I WOULDN'T WRITE THIS SONG
KEEPING UP ON A QUIET AND DISTANT FUTURE
AND I WON'T SEE YOU AT ALL
WHEN THE LIGHTS GO DOWN
WHEN YOUR fu*kED UP LIFE GETS TURNED AROUND
ALL YOU HEAR ARE TAINTED SOUNDS
WHEN THE LIGHTS GO DOWN
AND YOU'RE TIRED OF ALL THE sh*t YOU'RE TAKING NOW
THEY WILL TALK YOU UP WHEN YOU ARE IN THE GROUND
WHEN THE LIGHTS GO DOWN.
