The light shine clear through the sodium haze
The night draws near and the daylight fades
Ignore the voices discard the day
For the brand new darkness for the bright new way

Well there have been better plans
But none that I could ever understand
Emerald signal the green on black
The lights say move say never look back
And so I find another place where I've never been seen
Find another place where the red turns green
Where the emerald glistens through the darkness again
Where the emerald glistens through the rain

The lights shine clear through the sodium haze
The night draws near and the daylight fades
But there's a voice in the distance quiet and clear
Saying something that I never ever wanted to hear

There have been better plans
But none that I could ever understand
I see the emerald see the signal see the green on black
I see the lights say you can never look back
And so I find another place where I've never been seen
Find another place where the red turns green
Where the emerald glistens through the darkness again
Where the emerald glistens through the rain rain rain
And I'm happy here in the rain
