we're rolling neon lights
and slinking purple skies
squeeze out soft regrets
from all our lives
as i greet another door
that opens in to that place
that we repeatedly begin
i'm tangled up in tries
slipping on i wonder why
i face affection not embrace
another urban wasteland
thick with fears
i see lights that shine
like frozen television tears
or dying embers of another day
please tell me what it is i i wanna say
i'm tangled up in tries
slipping on i wonder why
i face affection not embrace
affection not embrace
