《Leeds Road 3am》歌词

[00:00:42] The festival is over and the strings of coloured lights

[00:00:45] Are blowing crazy in the coming wind

[00:00:48] One bulb comes loose shatters on the ground

[00:00:50] The empty streets pick up the sound it echoes like a tiny gunshot

[00:00:56] Ringing through the damp and through the silence

[00:00:59] Water trickles slowly like the feel of troubles only half washed away

[00:01:05] Behind the wire the watchman doing nights sits beside a wall of screens

[00:01:09] But he's not watching gazing into the steam rising from his cup of coffee

[00:01:15] He's locked away inside

[00:01:18] Staring into the light of a different world

[00:01:31] Near the top of sandford road there's a parked mondeo in the shadows

[00:01:35] The lighting of a cigarette illuminates four faces not talking just waiting

[00:01:42] The man in the front passenger seat holds the phone to his ear

[00:01:45] Listens to a thin voice giving the details

[00:01:48] While in the back the boy with the long hair

[00:01:50] Stares out through the misty glass into the dark streets

[00:01:54] And into the light of a different world

[00:02:12] Three streets down the restaurant is empty 3am weeknights dead-time

[00:02:18] The owner came here years ago and never lost the dream of going home

[00:02:21] But knows he never will

[00:02:23] In the kitchen his son sits head in hands thinks about leaving

[00:02:27] Anywhere just somewhere that's not here

[00:02:31] Doesn't look up or see the mondeo passing outside

[00:02:34] He's gazing into the light a different world

[00:02:45] Staring into the light of a different world

[00:03:11] There's a couple in a red car coming home late on the inner ring

[00:03:14] Not talking or listening to the music just lost in their own thoughts

[00:03:18] The mondeo shoots the lights at sixty-five

[00:03:20] Swerves catches the red car that spins and rolls

[00:03:24] Lands upside down in a crumple of metal and shattered glass

[00:03:30] The girl sits trapped inside watching new blood trickle down her shoulder

[00:03:35] Turns to see her boyfriend slumped against the dash

[00:03:37] As a little crowd gathers round

[00:03:41] 'Make him wake up make him wake up' she's screaming

[00:03:44] 'Make him wake up make him wake up' and now she's pushing at him

[00:03:48] 'Make him wake up make him wake up'

[00:03:50] But he's gone into the light of a different world

[00:04:04] Staring into the lights of a different world
