When the service is done
B A F#m
And the perish shuffled some

From the unresolved dreams you keep
And the hours pass by
Just left on repeat

When the LCDs
Are all the player ones you can be
Put your foot down in the right hand lane
If you are with me
 
Till the trains rerun
And the raw shower has come
And the May frequencies sung
Have sent you to sleep

Fighting off the hostiles
With whom we collude
 
Hoping to
Find the key to this
Play of communications
Between you and me
