 We could start tonight
 Slide back the deadbolts
 Let the pictures down
 They hold no life
 And if you've got some faith, then you are faithful
 You fall down on your face
 You got a face full
 We could start tonight
 Pull down the plastic
 Light the gasoline
 Erase the lines
 And if you want to live
 Then go on living
 If you want to give
 Gotta get it right

 The ceiling was beyond the world I could afford
 You'll never knock your head or chip your teeth
 If you won't take some more
 Or just keep dancing with your chin a vacant stare
 The promise worth in very movement was proceeded in your chair

 And here we are
 Saints and sightseers
 The light bulb phosphorescent flash and then we're gone
 And there we were, all full of fever
 A million shakes until the leaves have drifted on
 And here we are
 Far beyond reason
 A million fires a million holes put in the sky
 And there we were
 Saints and sightseers
 A million runway lights to bring up through the night

 We stand on ledges, kick our feet and throw our shoes
 I tried to move a little closer, nothing left for me to lose
 There is no argument to get me going hoarse
 Misplaced my mind and now I do not have to worry about before

 Less talk, more arms, more legs, more swinging back and forth
 Lights on, lights off, I know that I want to be adored
 First hips, then knees, then feet, don't think anymore
 Make no mistake, there's no blood when the words are gone
 Less talk, more arms, more legs, more swinging back and forth
 Lights on, lights off, we know we want to be adored
 First hips, then knees, then feet, don't think anymore
 Make no mistake, there's no blood when the words are gone
