Lyrics

I watched this life slow from 60 down to zero
Now the only place where go 
Is the TV in the living room
Where we hum along with the jingle of the evening news
It's an endless 12-bar blues
Unsurprising and out of tune

These days, I don't sleep much through the nights
I keep waking up wishing that the things I've been missing will be waiting right in front of my eyes

Until the lights shine again
Leave a candle burning in the window
Call up all of your friends
Draw a map of the world with everywhere you wanna go
Make promises for when all of this 
Is a game of remember when
These lights will shine again

Now I wear eyeglasses 
So I can see the sun
It's been rising for 2000 years
It may fall down in less than one
I bought a mask to wear
While I'm out on the run
No one knows who the hell I am
No one knows who I'll become

These nights, I pray for better days
If there's a holy spirit, I hope she hears it and washes these worries away

Until the lights shine again
Leave a candle burning in the window
Call up all of your friends
Draw a map of the world with everywhere you wanna go
Make promises for when all of this 
Is a game of remember when
These lights will shine again

All these empty avenues
Day after day of deja vu
If your heart gets low, I want you to know
These lights will shine again

When these lights shine again
I'll throw open every door and every window
Call up all of my friends
Smile at all the strangers I don't know
We'll laugh and cry about all the times
We swore the world would end
These lights will shine again
