It's Friday night, everyone's going out
The whole city's full of sound
You hardly dare to go outside
But everybody's got to go tonight
There's ice-cream stands, there's people all around
You know every face in town
You say Hello but walk away
You know what they were gonna say
Let's go see the fireworks
So beautiful up on the hillside
You wish you had a place to be alone
A seat upon a wall of stones
To rest from your life on the run
And glimpse into the setting sun
Yes you have felt this way before
A state of mind so insecure
As if the devil was in your throat
The devil knows what this is for
And in your brain must be a hole
The more you think the less you know
In a few weeks you will be long gone
You'll be long gone, long gone
Here they come the fireworks
In bloom up in the deep blue city sky
