Verse 1
Db
Stand by to switch on
We fire out all pistons
Gb
We're singing along
But no one is listening
Ab
From dusk until dawn
Db
We stay up to carry the flame
And when it's all said and done
In these alternate endings
Gb
When nothing is love
But the stragglers and
empties
Ab
We're sleeping it off
Just to wake up and start it again

Start to lay your weapons down

Gb
drown the signal out_
Change channels, manufactured doubt

When the only thing we'll
Ab
fight for every day
Is a better seat on a crashing...

Plain to see, but hard to breathe

The streets are full of tumbleweeds

Once we were the lighthouse

Leading the moth right into it

Now we are waking up to
Ab
the phone lines cut
