@SONG: Red Shoes

Red shoes
Blue car
Never run 
Too far

Winds push
Us along
We're so weak
And they're so strong

All I ever need
The mercy of your lies
All I ever need
The mercy of your lies
And the clouds that break
And the clouds that break

Red shoes
Blue car
Never run 
Too far

Winds push
Us along
We're so weak
And they're so strong

All I ever need
The mercy of your lies
All I ever need
The mercy of your lies
And the clouds that break

@SONG: When the World (version)

There are sightseers in the township
	We're coming close to sunrise
Wishing well gone to hell
	Lights burn red in your streets
Lights burn red in your streets
	Stay faithful to you
And the North Star has gone out
	I'm ashamed of these feelings
And we're coming close to sunrise
	We're coming close to sunrise
Candy[?] sleeps in Boston
	Lights burn red in your streets
People sell themselves
	Stay faithful to you
There's a new disease on offer
	I'm ashamed of these feelings
From the mirror on the wall
	We're coming close to sunrise
I ask no pride
	Lights burning red in your streets
There's always an answer
	Stay faithful to you
It's there at the time
	I'm ashamed of these feelings
I'm ashamed of these feelings
	We're coming close to sunrise
Would you offer me comfort
	Lights burn red in your streets
Raising my eyes to you
	Stay faithful to you
Framing your image
	I'm ashamed of these feelings
	We're coming close to sunrise
	Lights burn red in your streets
	Stay faithful to you
	I'm ashamed of these feelings

When the world is no longer watching
When the world is no longer watching
Stay faithful to your drug
When the world is no longer watching
When the world is no longer watching
Stay faithful to your drug
