Lights are out on Neon Drive
Unprotected in my bed
Behind the walls it comes alive
Shoots again into my head
I see the red dust shadow
In the corner of my eye
Another child is calling
« No, no, where did my Daddy go ?
He's flown, I'm alone
When I'm grown up I'll fly too »
Take these things, fold your wings
Words can't bring you back

It's been this way forever
Everything I thought was mine
Been haunted by reminders since 1969
I keep the shadow walled in
In the deepest part of me
And still the child is calling
« No, no, why did my Daddy go away ?
None will say, when I wake up I'll know »

Tears I've tried so hard to hide always break inside
Take these things and fold your wings
Words can't bring you back
