Division St.

Lights out on Division Street

Now all the hate that rises

Through the cracks in the pavement

As the temperature falls

(This is where it hits the ground)

Lights out on Division Street

I'm repeating

Goodbye to the memories

(The fever that will not break)

The night is pouring down

It's not enough to put this out

I'll burn up before I wake up

(On Division Street)

This is serious

This is serious

If this is serious

I'll hide my heart in dark parades

Lights out on Division Street

I held you tight like an empty bottle

But the glass broke

(And the poison spilled out of your mouth)

Hello? Hello? Is anybody there?

The house turned black and sat in silence

(While a mockingbird sang)

La-la-la-la-la-la, listen to yourself

Go on and on, as if you spoke to someone else

Lights out on Division Street

I'm repeating

Goodbye to the memories

(The fever that will not break)

The night is pouring down

It's not enough to put this out

I'll burn up before I wake up

(On Division Street)

This is serious

This is serious

If this is serious

I'll hide my heart in dark parades

To dance between the scissors blades

Without getting cut

I drew an X on your city's name

Lights out, black out, blow out the candle again

Spin the room around

Fall down, pass out, get up, I can't keep repeating

Between the footsteps I hear crickets in the trees

A silent army marching with me through a swarm of bees

A needle dragged across a record slowing down

Along Division Street the lights were dying out

Endless rows of houses stretched on for miles and miles and miles

Turn the windows black

Lights out on Division Street

Repeating (Repeat it)

Lights out on Division Street

Repeating, turn the windows black

Lights out, lights out, lights out

Turn the windows black

Lights out, lights out, lights out

Listen to yourself

The windows black
