Dressed up like a car crash...

Shit! Hittade en dvd med U2 i Tomas skivsamling.. Och jag hade ännu en gång glömt bort hur underbar jag tycker att den här låten är!!! Den har verkligen hjälpt mej genom många svåra stunder...

Green light, Seven Eleven
You stop in
For a pack of cigarettes

You don't smoke
Don't even want to
And now check you change
Dressed up like a car crash
The wheels are turning
But you're upside down
You say when he hits you
You don't mind
Because when he hurts you
You feel alive
Is that what it is?


Red light, grey morning
You stumble
Out of a hole in the ground
A vampire or a victim
It depends on who's around
You used to stay in
To watch the adverts
You could lip synch
To the talk shows

And if you look
You look through me
And when you talk
It's not to me
And when I touch you
You don't feel a thing


If I could stay
Then the night would give you up
Stay
Then the day would keep its trust
Stay and the night would be enough

Faraway, so close
Up with the static and the radio
With satellite television
You can go anywhere
Miami, New Orleans
London, Belfast and Berlin

And if you listen
I can't call
And if you jump
You just might fall
And if you shout
I'll only hear you

If I could stay
Then the night would give you up
Stay
Then the day would keep its trust
Stay
With the demons you drowned
Stay
With the spirits I found
Stay
And the night would be enough

Three o'clock in the morning
It's quiet and there's no one around
Just the bang and the clatter
As an angel runs to ground
Just the bang and the clatter
As an angel hits to ground


Stay (faraway, so close) - U2
