Intro : (2x)
T his town was a l overs stage
but no w you can't recogni se
t he streetlights that are d aggers to your e yes
Y ou can't find your bea rings

The s cene has no c olour and no s ound.
Y ou still beli eve in me
af ter the things I've do ne
Yo u fear for w hat we have bec ome
T he ground is une ven
y ou stumble from day to d ay
Y ou tread where its e asy
although your f eet are like lead
and you g otta get underway
