When The Lights Go Out

Lyrics

When The Lights Go Out Lot of demons lurking in the dark When the lights go out Lot of things going on in the park When the lights go out Night time runners waiting on their mark When the lights go out By day they just can't stand to look each other in the face But here they are now ready to invade each others space When the lights go out People backing away from the waves When the tide comes in Like they don't know how to behave When the tide comes in Dragging their towels from a watery grave When the tide comes in They're giving up ground to the weeds and the foam Trying to tolerate each other til it's time to go home When the tide comes in And oh, don't we like to think we're so precious I'm ok, leave me alone, I just need my own space We'd disappear up ourselves if we'd let us Footsteps behind so I'll pick up the pace But sooner or later we're back in the cave With our instincts leading the way People staring ahead into space When the train arrives Concentrating on another place When the train arrives Resignation written right across their face When the train arrives Folding their papers and staring at the ads Going home to their houses and their bachelor pads When the train arrives
