Lyrics
Smoke curling out of crumbling chimneys Steel-toes echoing around the nearby streets The boss makes a call and a young man pleads Gossip and rumour is what this town breathes A jungle of lights to fight a flood of rays To wire our brains with filaments and fakes A tangle of currents twist from a singular dream To grow old and round, eat fat and drink cream You learn how to make the most of harsh light When you're born blind Identify the source and it starts to dissolve The body into the mind You wonder how they balance pleasure On the edge of a knife The dance is delicately ordered By stepping into the light Fathers and sons perform this modern game That weighs and trades honour versus escape One brief gesture of hopeless joy Can warm the heart, or embalm the void Naked bodies aren't worth nothing Vacant is the life you're living Aching fills all your memories David, run away with me
