You can't see the stars above the city skyline But sometimes the air shines like gold under the yellow streetlights The psychotics in the park howling up at the sky And the silent airplanes slowly drifting by
Sometimes it all seems to glow as bright As the light from all the TVs in town
Sometimes it all seems to glow as bright As the light from all the TVs in town
But when I wake up scared in those still summer nights When the air hangs like snakes around flashing neon signs It seems like there's nothing along these broken roads But blinking lights on creaking metal poles
Like a thousand crying eyes dropping tears In the light from all the TVs in town Tears in the light from all the TVs in town
