Do you hear that hollow rhythm?
That's the night train coming through
If it calls for me to jump on
Not sure what I'm going to do
Cause there are things outside of this house
That I cannot let get to you
They move
They used to lead me to the river
But it never made me whole
They held you down beneath the surface
Made you calloused, made you cold
I said I'd rather take my chances
Than buy into the shit they sold
Your voice sounds like father's vinyl
In the summer, after dark
If I hear you on the train too, then my darling -
I believe you'll have my heart
Yeah
Do you see that crowd of people?
Walking like they have no hope
I used to think I'd find my dreams here
But they all went up in smoke
If we don't get out of this place
I swear, my soul is going to choke
And maybe yours will, I don't know
Your kiss feels like streams and rivers
In the summer, after dark
If you kiss me on the train too, then my lover -
We will never grow apart
We're going to wake up without a sense of where we are
You make me mean the words "I will do better this time."
I will stand on the edge of heaven, middle finger raised
If you're staying at my side
You make me want to get a calendar
I can finally pick a date more than a month from now
That I'll want to be alive
