Our Lost Infantry All The Streetlights Of My Hometown
(verse)
All these steps are duplicates of journeys I have made a hundred times
Take the footbridge cross the water, to the place where I said goodbye
Hoping I'd be leaving, hoping I would not be back again
(chorus)
In search of safety, we killed the night sky. My sense of foresight was always blind
(verse)
The sun has set on battlefields but we can still wage war most every night
Propping up our teenage dreams, 'til closing time we put the world to rights
Thinking we'd be leaving, thinking we would not be back again
(chorus)
In search of safety, we killed the night sky
My sense of foresight was always blind
(outro)
All the streetlights of my hometown are blotting out the stars tonight
