There’s a rhythm [bad word] these days
 Where the lights don’t move and the colors don’t fade
 Leaves you empty with nothing but dreams
 In a world gone shallow 
 In a world gone lean

 Sometimes there’s things a man cannot know
 Gears won’t turn and the leaves won’t grow
 There’s no place [bad word] and no gasoline
 Engine won’t turn
 And the train won’t leave

 Engines won’t turn and the train won’t leave

 I will stay with you tonight
 Hold you close ‘til the morning light
 In the morning watch a new day rise
 We’ll do whatever just to stay alive
 We’ll do whatever just to stay alive

 Well the way I feel is the way I write
 It isn’t like the thoughts of the man who lies
 There is a [bad word] and it’s on our side
 Dawn [bad word] 
 Open your eyes
 Look into the sun as the new days rise

 And I will wait for you tonight
 You’re here forever and you’re by my side
 I’ve been waiting all my life
 To feel your heart as it’s keeping time
 We’ll do whatever just to stay alive

 Dawn [bad word] 
 Open your eyes
 Dawn [bad word]  Open your eyes
 Dawn [bad word]  Open your eyes
 Dawn [bad word]  Open your eyes

 Look into the sun as the new days rise
 There’s a rhythm [bad word] these days
 Where the lights don’t move and the colors don’t fade
 Leaves you empty with nothing but dreams
 In a world gone shallow
 In a world gone lean

 But there is a [bad word] and it’s on our side
 Dawn [bad word] open your eyes
 Look into the sun as a new days rise
