lyrics

BRIGHT SHINING LIGHTS

Walking walking
We are all walking
at the same old pace

Sitting sitting
We are all sitting
in the same boxed place

On the streets, in the dark
We keep playing our parts

Looking up we reach for bright shining lights
Wondering how they ever got so high
But even bright shining lights can't save a man's mind
They only make souls go blind
Maybe it's time to move from bright shining lights

Itching itching
We are all itching
for a brand new change

Screaming screaming
We are all screaming
but can't hear a thing

On the streets, in the dark
We somehow lost our hearts

Looking up we reach for bright shining lights
Wondering how they ever got so high
But even bright shining lights can't save a man's mind
They only make souls go blind
Maybe it's time to move from bright shining lights

Well and alive
Shouldn't be so desperate to cry
Should've known that life is more than lights just passing by

Pulled by green and gold
We all burn in the undertow
Why's it so hard
to let this lie go?

Looking up we reach for bright shining lights
Wondering how they ever got so high
But even bright shining lights can't save a man's mind
They only make souls go blind
Maybe it's time to move from bright shining lights

Baby, it's time
to move from bright shining lights
