The silence never changes
|
In the city with no name
|
Would you come down after midnight
|
Leave the rest of us to shame
|
Why don't we talk to the dead
|
When the living's all the same
|
Why do we crawl like babies
|
Why don't we light up anyway
|
|
Come down Mississippi tonight
|
As we all watch under big lights
|
|
You grow up fast and lonely
|
With the lines to mark your face
|
Bet you never felt so empty
|
Have you wasted all your days?
|
|
We're you born from the seed of disguise?
|
Do you pray to become undone?
|
You're the best of all that you know
|
So uncover me in the big lights
|
|
Come down Mississippi tonight
|
As we all watch under big lights
|
Why don't you come down Mississippi tonight
|
As we all watch under big lights
|
|
Why don't we talk to the dead
|
When the living's all the same
|
Why do we crawl like babies, baby
|
Why don't we light up anyway
|
|
Come down Mississippi tonight
|
As we all watch under big lights
|
|
Come down Mississippi tonight
|
As we all watch under big lights
|
