Shadows fall through the windows of office halls
Another day ends, twilight falls
The city looms large
I feel small
A quiet drink, a vacant stare and then
Down in the tunnels I go again
Up on the ground
Night begins

I reach my door and turn the key
Darkness surrounds me like a sea
Except for the light on my TV
Floating in space I start to dream

Sunlight comes to break my dream apart
But something stirred inside my heart
Awakens as
The new day starts
In the streets the waking waters rise
And wash me in upon the tide
The new day waits
I don't arrive,
