《Leeds Road 3am》歌词

时长： 05:18

The festival is over and the strings of coloured lights[00:00:42]

Are blowing crazy in the coming wind[00:00:45]

One bulb comes loose shatters on the ground[00:00:48]

The empty streets pick up the sound it echoes like a tiny gunshot[00:00:50]

Ringing through the damp and through the silence[00:00:56]

Water trickles slowly like the feel of troubles only half washed away[00:00:59]

Behind the wire the watchman doing nights sits beside a wall of screens[00:01:05]

But he's not watching gazing into the steam rising from his cup of coffee[00:01:09]

He's locked away inside[00:01:15]

Staring into the light of a different world[00:01:18]

Near the top of sandford road there's a parked mondeo in the shadows[00:01:31]

The lighting of a cigarette illuminates four faces not talking just waiting[00:01:35]

The man in the front passenger seat holds the phone to his ear[00:01:42]

Listens to a thin voice giving the details[00:01:45]

While in the back the boy with the long hair[00:01:48]

Stares out through the misty glass into the dark streets[00:01:50]

And into the light of a different world[00:01:54]

Three streets down the restaurant is empty 3am weeknights dead-time[00:02:12]

The owner came here years ago and never lost the dream of going home[00:02:18]

But knows he never will[00:02:21]

In the kitchen his son sits head in hands thinks about leaving[00:02:23]

Anywhere just somewhere that's not here[00:02:27]

Doesn't look up or see the mondeo passing outside[00:02:31]

He's gazing into the light a different world[00:02:34]

Staring into the light of a different world[00:02:45]

There's a couple in a red car coming home late on the inner ring[00:03:11]

Not talking or listening to the music just lost in their own thoughts[00:03:14]

The mondeo shoots the lights at sixty-five[00:03:18]

Swerves catches the red car that spins and rolls[00:03:20]

Lands upside down in a crumple of metal and shattered glass[00:03:24]

The girl sits trapped inside watching new blood trickle down her shoulder[00:03:30]

Turns to see her boyfriend slumped against the dash[00:03:35]

As a little crowd gathers round[00:03:37]

'Make him wake up make him wake up' she's screaming[00:03:41]

'Make him wake up make him wake up' and now she's pushing at him[00:03:44]

'Make him wake up make him wake up'[00:03:48]

But he's gone into the light of a different world[00:03:50]

Staring into the lights of a different world[00:04:04]
