Green Light (in Stereo)

Moon's throwing daggers

At the targets on the street

Trucks wipe the sweat out of their eyes

The brain is making promises

The body cannot keep

You duck inside a doorway

And you change into your favorite disguise

Black hole in your pocket

But there's jingles up your sleeve

Going down like a pederast in a boy's school

And you wish that you could stop it

But the handle's out of reach

Sinking like a calliope in a whirlpool

Oh no..

You're waiting for the green light

Hanging on for the cold opportunity

You're waiting for the green light

As every second of your life keeps slipping

The time keeps ticking

The the green light is looking like

It's never gonna change for you

Time carves initials

Into the prison of your face

Creeping like a spy on broken glass

Cars kiss the tarmac

As they cut right to the chase

Cut price epiphany

But somehow it just never seems to last
