Let’s leave the TV set for dumb
and walk out in the sun
I woke up late this morning and man
I woke so hard
Turned the TV up loud to hear you’d made
the big jump to the starz
Your eyes your mouth your smile
now are everywhere in my gaze
Maybe you have climbed
the mountain?
Maybe you can illuminate
these strange day?
I watch you shuffle thru your city streets
No doubt about who’s on their own
Now every soul inside your city seems
To be on their own, a long, long way from home
Free inside the zone
but nowhere to call home
Today is left for dumb
and tomorrow never comes
Did you wake up up late this morning
with a halo round your head?
Find yourself on the streets and
wishing you could climb back in your bed?
The evening squares are filling up with
fallen one-time stars
Maybe if we ask them nicely
They’ll reveal their secrets of survival?
I watch you suffer on these city streets
No doubt about who’s in the zone
Don’t be deceived cuz everyone you meet
Is on their own, a long long way from home
Free to come and go / But nowhere to call home
