Here In The Deadlights Lyrics - What Kind Of World - Brendan Benson

Crank it up for me. 

Better open your eyes. 

Uncover your ears. 

You might notice something. 

Because of all of your lies 

over your years. 

You've been missing something. 

You've been missing something. 

Lost forever. 

Gone for good. 

And there's nothing you can do. 

It comes together 

as it should. 

And in the end it's only you 

standing alone. 

Taking it in. 

Not sure how to end or how to begin. 

Here in the deadlights 

there's so many hands 

reaching out to touch you. 

Here in the deadlights 

in No Man's Land 

stretches out before you. 

When the feeling goes away 

and you're left with nothing. 

Everything you think to say 

doesn't matter anymore. 

Nothing matters anymore. 

In a stale and musty room 

when your old and no one cares. 

Underneath fluorescent plume 

only cold and hopeless stares. 

All an allusion, all of the time. 

Everything perfectly all in a line. 

Here in the deadlights 

there's so many hands 

reaching out to touch you. 

Here in the deadlights 

in No Man's Land 

stretches out before you. 

And I huff and I puff 

at the ash and the soot. 

And my head and my crook 

are dead wood that I took. 

And the way that she shook 

if you like by the book 

take a knife, take a bite 

and I could and I might. 

If only to spite. 

If only to spite. 

If only to spite. 

Here in the deadlights 

there's so many hands 

reaching out to touch you. 

Here in the deadlights 

in No Man's Land 

stretches out before you. 

Here in the deadlights 

there's so many hands 

reaching out to touch you. 

Here in the deadlights 

in No Man's Land 

stretches out before you.
