Nocturnal Americans Lyrics

It's hard to talk / tongues between teeth
I lost my way so I'll be brief
I've begun to disagree with this breed of violent peace
The dialogue and the debate
Good things will come along - just wait
System coats you like a shell
What you need nobody sells

Our love for this goes so far back
I missed the train in seconds flat
And the lights of passing cars are still rolling thru the park
This portrait hangs in empty hearts
From the places where they start
In no harmony no matter where we go

Why do your dreams come from that magazine
And you're not to blame / the wasted man
Ripple in a water can
Night birds scatter, last call pleading
Can we make a late night house call? We don't look so good tonight

We're the kings of midnight runs
Cell phones, guns, and rolled up ones
Desperate but don't despair - make the call and Merv is there
Bloody Mary's on the phone - she never wants to be along
We're gonna bring you back to life again
One by one they always call
High they stand and down the fall
You don't look so bad to me tonight
We will save the night again
Plastic bags for plastic friends
I've got your medicine tonight

Why do your dreams come from that magazine
And you're not to blame / the wasted man
Ripple in a water can
Night birds scatter, last call pleading
Can we make a late night house call?
We don't look so good tonight
