 Late night brakes lock
 hear the tires squeal
 Red light can't stop
 so I spin the wheel
 My world goes black before
 I feel  an angel lift me up
 And I open  bloodshot
eyes  into fluorescent white
 They flip  the siren hit the lights
close  the doors and I am gone

 Now I lay  here owing my
 life to a stranger
 And I realize that empty
 words are not enough
 I'm left  here with
 the question of just
What  have I to show except
 the promises  I never kept?
 I lie  here shaking on this bed
 under  the weight of my regrets
 I hope  that I will
 never let you down
 I know  that this-- can be more
 than just flashing
lights  and sound

 Look around and
 you'll see that at
 times it feels  like
 no one really cares
 It gets me down
 but I'm still
 gonna try to do
 what's right I know that
 there's A difference  between sleight
 of hand and giving  everything you have
There's  a line drawn in the sand
 I'm working  up the will to cross it and
 I hope  that I will
 never let you down
 I know  that this can be more
 than just flashing
---
 lights and sound
Rhetoric  can't raise the dead
 I'm sick of always talking
 when there's no change
Rhetoric  can't raise the dead
 I'm sick of empty words
 let's lead and not follow
 Late night brakes lock
 hear the tires squeal
 Red light can't stop
 so I spin the wheel
 My world goes black before I
feel  an angel steal me from the
Greedy  jaws of death and chance
 and pull  me in with steady hands
 They've given  me a second chance
 the artist  in the ambulance
 I hope  that I will
 never let you down
 I know  that this can be more
 than just flashing
lights  and sound
 Can we pick  you off  the ground
  --- (hold)
 more than flashing lights and sound
