Stay (Faraway, So Close!)

Green light
7-Eleven
Ya stop in for a pack of cigarettes
Ya 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
Oh
Is that what it is

Red light
Grey morning
Ya stumble out of a hole in the ground
A vampire
Or a victim
It depends 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 if you talk
It's not to 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 satellite
Television
You can go anywhere
Miami
New Orleans
London Belfast
And Berlin
And if you listen
I can't call
And if you jump
Ya 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

Oh ooohh ooooohhhh ooohh oooohhh
Oh ooohh ooooohhhh ooohh oooohhh
Oh ooohh ooooohhhh ooohh oooohhh
Oh ooohh ooooohhhh ooohh oooohhh

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
