(The Handsome Family)

You can't see the stars above
The city skyline
But sometimes the air
Shines like gold under the yellow streetlights
The psychotics in the park
Howling up at the sky
And silent airplanes slowly drifting by

Sometimes it all seems to glow
As bright as the light
From all the TVs in town

Sometimes it all seems to glow
As bright as the light
From all the TVs in town

But when I wake up scared
In those still summernights
And the air hangs like snakes
Around flashing neon-signs
It seems like there's nothing left
Along these broken roads
But blinking lights on creeking metal-poals

Like a thousand crying eyes
Dropping tears in the light
From all the TVs in town

Just like a thousand crying eyes
Dropping tears in the light
From all the TVs in town
