Refinery

Tonight Strung out Like a hazy web of lights Until the dawn And the rain Is falling all along The Rieperbahn And you're gone Ain't it strange It seems like no one Touches you these days Must be unclean And their words Are haunting you Like shadows veiled in steam Neverending... And she shimmers from the sky like a million golden opportunities All scattered on the ground and floating in the gutters of your memory She's written on the overpass and her broken promise sleeps besides the factory She's ugly in the dawn and her dress flies on the fence below the refinery Refinery
