Turn on the Light

You run down the strip, down the strip right through me

The rain on the windscreen, blistering the stop sign

Turn in the rubies your mother did buy you

Through this land I roar

You made me bold like a whore, wish I'd never been born

Got a good looking corpse hanging on to me tightly

Bless this strip as it runs right through me

Bless this strip as it runs right through me

She fades to the background, proof reads a story

Kills all the characters and crosses out the heroine

Kissing an American, she told me she bought me

Through this land I roar

She made me bold like a whore, wish I'd never been born

Got a good looking corpse hanging on to me tightly

Bless this strip as it runs right through me

Bless this strip as it runs right through me

Love, turn on the light

It's so dark in there, inside her life

And I know, what it's like

To feel loved and to know like your self

She dragged all the blood to the back of my brain

Filled to the line, smoked on an elephant's tusk

Punch drunk, bitten, and bleeding I became

Tame, feeble in the heroine one of us

And I hear mutants screaming

And I ride on the crest of waves

And I stuck as a joker's feeling

And I still hear demons breathing, and

Love, turn on the light

It's so dark in there, inside her life

And I know, what it's like

To feel loved and to know like your self

The sun had dropped, I'm sweating in a carcass

I've given up on me, I've given up on Marcus

I'm carrying my casket, looking for the enemy

I'm down on my knees, surrendering to Valerie

And all, I feel my head is racing

And I, feel my shoulders bracing

I, know I'm sick to my bones

And I, know I can't get back home now

Love, turn on the light

It's so dark in there, inside her life

And I know, what it's like

To feel loved and to know like your self

Take me far, from this sweet city stench

Where friends all betray each other

And I'm just another lover to a

Take me far, from this sweet city stench

Where friends all betray each other

And I'm just another lover to a friend

To a friend, to a friend, to a friend

Oh take me far, oh take me far, oh take me far, oh take me far
