Green light, Seven Eleven
You stop in for a pack of cigarettes
You don't smoke, don't even want to
Hey now, check your change

Dressed up like a car crash
Your wheels are turnin' but you're upside down
You say when he hits you, you don't mind
Because when he hurts you, you feel alive

Oh no, is that what it is?
Red lights, grey morning
You stumble out of a hole in the ground
A vampire or a victim

It depends on who's around
You used to stay in to watch the adverts
You could lip-sync to the talk shows
And if you look, you look through me

And when you talk, you talk at me
And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing
If I could stay, then the night would give you up
Stay, and the day would keep its trust

Stay, and the night would be enough
Faraway, so close
Up with the static and the radio
With satellite television

You can go anywhere:
Miami, New Orleans
London, Belfast and Berlin
And, if you listen, I can't call

And, if you jump, you just might fall
And, if you shout, I'll only hear you
If I could stay, then the night would give you up
Stay, and the day would keep its trust

Stay with the demons you drowned
Stay with the spirit I found
Stay, and the night would be enough
Three o'clock in the morning

It's quiet, there's no one around
Just the bang and the clatter
As an angel runs to ground
Just the bang and the clatter

As an angel hits the ground
