No Man Follow

you survived another winter.
you survived where nothing grew.

the days felt cold and never changing,
so you just slept the whole way through.

when you think about the future,
its like the past, but hard and small.

an old idea you stole from someone.
a borrowed dream thats born to fall.

take a taxi through the snow
tell them you love them,
dont let go.

through the tunnel moving slow,
tonights theres nowhere
you wont go.

you survived yourself.
you survived inside the lost world.
the dreams of love repeat.

subways sing with heated calls
the g-string sirens walking tall.
summer fires turn winter dreams.
an old romantics hotshot schemes.

you survived yourself.
you survived inside the lost world.

sweet surrender to the night.
sweet surrender to the light.
the dreams of love repeat.

wherever there is light

jane passes through the crowds
outside the mercury lounge.
she loves the city sounds.
she feels that she's been found.

wherever there is light,
she follows.

the bats are out again,
kids shout in Summer rain -
for real, imagined, shame,
for things they cannot name.

she thinks of all their bright
tomorrows.

wherever there is light,
she follows.

walk in and out of rooms.
fall in and out of love.

you survived another winter.
you survived where nothing grew.
