Stay Faraway So Close! Lyrics

    Green light, Seven Eleven
    You stop in for a pack of cigarettes
    You don't smoke, don't even want to
    I see you check your change
    Dressed up like a car crash
    The wheels are turning byt you're upside down
    You say when he hits you, you don't mind
    Because when he hurts you, you feel alive
    Is that what it is?

    Red lights, grey morning
    You stumble out of a hole in the ground
    A vampire or a victim
    It depend's on who's around
    You used to stay in to watch the adverts
    You could lip synch to the talk shows

    And if you look, you look through me
    And if you talk it's not to 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 satelite 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 then 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 and 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
