Intro

x2

When I see the light why is it terrifying?

 It's terrifying, It's coming up

 I'm going down

Down into the streets that got me here

 It's blinding, blinding light

 It's not supposed to rain today

I see it now, it was just moving too fast

I see it now like a reflection in my past

Rivers of poison that surround us on an island

 Full of death and rats, subways and taxicabs

 And you and those blinding lights

 Yeah you and those blinding lights

I just want to sleep, why is it never over

 The day before keeps running through my head

 I need the downs in the street, it's awe inspiring

 These strangers passing nobody stops to say goodbye

I see it now, it was just moving too fast

I see it now like a reflection in my past

Rivers of poison that surround us on an island

 Full of death and rats, subways and taxicabs

All night bars and mistakes you know I made before

Days and nights, endless and overripe

Buses and traffic lights and tourists with subway maps and

You and those blinding lights

 Yeah you and those blinding lights

 Yeah you and those blinding lights

 Yeah you and those blinding lights

 Shining on the death and rats
