Madrugada: Highway of light








Highway of Light

Lights the way
Into the night

Puts all flesh
Of human spirit
To rest

The clamor and the clang
The bells we rang
The sound of wheels

I've got a fresh set of ears
And they ain't listening
Oh no

But soon enough it all appears in vain
Even the rain
It will stop

My eyes are black
My jail is dry
And I feel nothing
No more

Headlights pan and drape the wall
Darkness that surrounding all
We chase the highway on and on
To light the highway as our own

Highway of Light
Deliver me
To the night

That we might sleep
And disappear
No-one may ever
Find us here

An endless string of lights
Meanders through the night
Through houses with gaping doors
Where no-one's living any more

Highway of Light
Lights the way
Into the night

Puts all flesh
Of human spirit
To rest
