You stop in for a pack of cigarettes
 You don't smoke, don't even want to
 Hey now, check your change
 Dressed up like a car crash
 Your wheels are turning but you're upside down
 You say when he hits you, you don't mind
 Because when he hurts you, you feel alive
 Hey babe, is that what it is

 Red lights, gray morning
 You stumble out of a hole in the ground
 A vampire or a victim
 It depend's on who's around
 You used to stay in to watch the adverts
 You could lip synch to the talk shows

 And if you look, you look through me
 And when you talk, you talk at me
 And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing

 If I could stay...
 Then the night would give you up
 Stay...and the day would keep its trust
 Stay...and the night would be enough

 Faraway, so close
 Up with the static and the radio
 With satelite television
 You can go anywhere
 Miami, New Orleans
 London, Belfast and Berlin

 And if you listen I can't call
 And if you jump, you just might fall
 And if you shout, I'll only hear you

 If I could stay...
 Then the night would give you up
 Stay...then the day would keep its trust
 Stay...with the demons you drowned
 Stay...with the spirit I found
 Stay...and the night would be enough

 Three o'clock in the morning
 It's quiet and there's no one around
 Just the bang and the clatter
 As an angel runs to ground

 Just the bang
 And the clatter
 As an angel
 Hits the ground
