Putting All The Lights Out

Coming from the back room
Looking for a positive sign
Angle and line
Circles, ellipses, shadows and eclipses
A meditation on a different time
A meditation on a different time

Watching all the flowers bloom
Breathing in the scent of a rose
Strange how it grows
A whim and a notion, moving like the ocean
Up she rises and there she blows
Up she rises and there she blows

It’s alright if you jump when the moment comes
It’s alright that what’s done can be still undone
It’s alright to be lit by a setting sun

Putting all the lights out
Driving with your eyes closed

Listen to the crash boom
Feeding on the fear in the dark
The eyes of a shark
Spices and citrus, acid over litmus
All aboard on a drifting ark
All aboard on a drifting ark

It’s alright when the wind blows dust and dirt
It’s alright when the day brings harm and hurt
It’s alright to be there when the last comes first

Putting all the lights out
Driving with your eyes closed
Putting all the lights out
Driving with your eyes closed

Underneath a full moon
Living in the light from the stars
A glow from afar
No sooner no later, burning all the data
Until the next time au revoir
Until the next time au revoir

It’s alright when the trip gets too surreal
It’s alright when the end is not revealed
It’s alright when the future stays concealed

Putting all the lights out
Plug into the mainline
Driving with your eyes closed
Habits for a lifetime
Putting all the lights out
Swimming for the shoreline
Driving with your eyes closed
Making up for lost time
