The night sounds of fallen angels Building stairways back to home And the radio plays softly Like a crooner left alone As the night falls into the velvet shades And beats down the bedroom door Of all the visions that come to me It's of one I'm hoping for
The postman closes up the station And the buses get cleaned with rain The asylum rests and barely breathes As the countryside goes insane Prophets speak of peace On the dim hue of TV screens Of all the moments that seem real I still wait to watch my dreams
Imposed upon the westward wall Are the silhouettes of weeping oaks Swaying in the wind that talks But they only tell me jokes Swept beneath the silver stars Sleeping on blanket clouds Of all the space above me I feel as if I can't get out
Headlights and passing trains Sound like time passing by Gone are the hearts inside Like the years beyond my eyes Sounds from the suburb city Blow like sirens in my mind Of all the thoughts within me Only one freezes time
