Lights out on division st.
and all the hate that rises
through the cracks in the pavement
as the temperature falls
(this is where it hits the ground)
lights out on division st.
i'm repeating 'goodbye'
to the memories
(the fever will not break)
the night is pouring down
it's not enough to put this out
i'll burn up before i wake up
(on division st.)
this is serious
this is serious
if this is serious i'll hide my heart in dark parades
lights out on division st.
i held you tight like an empty bottle
but the glass broke
(and the poison spilled out of your mouth:)
hello...hello....is anybody there?
the house turned black
(turned black)
and sat in silence
(while a mocking bird sang:)
"lalalalalala listen to yourself
go on and on as if you spoke to someone else"
lights out on division st.
i'm repeating 'goodbye'
to the memories
(the fever will not break)
the night is pouring down
it's not enough to put this out
i'll burn up before i wake up
(on division st.)
this is serious
this is serious
if this is serious i'll hide my heart in dark parades
to dance between the scissors' blades without getting cut
i drew an x on your city's name
(lights out, black out)
blow out the candle again
spin the room around
(fall down, pass out)
get up, i can't keep repeating
between the footsteps i hear crickets in the trees
a silent army marching with me trough a swarm of bees
a needle dragged across a record slowing down
along division st. the lights were dying out
(endless rows of houses stretched on for miles and miles and miles)
(turn the windows black)
lights out on division st.
(repeating)
repeating lights out on divison st.
(repeating 'turn the windows black'
lights out, lights out, lights out
turn the windows black)
lalalalalala listen to yourself
(lights out, lights out, lights out
turn the windows black)
