lyrics

You button up my shirt
White, clean, starched and pressed
You tie down my cufflinks
Stitch up my coat and vest

The bulb must be replaced now
(Who left it on?)
Because the light has gone out now
(The curtains are torn!)

I heard you in my half-sleep
Go from the light to the struggle
I heard you in my half-sleep
Go from the light to the labyrinth

My shoes have been polished and buffed
Like a police academy inspection
My trousers, they even match
Wrinkle free, despite my disposition

The wool socks you picked out
(Now I lay here)
They no longer itch now
(No longer home!)

Without motion or care
Go from the light to the struggle
Without motion or care
Go from the light to the labyrinth

They say the task of love
Seems to have no purpose

A million street lights
Have killed all but the brightest of stars

The bulb must be replaced now
(Who left it on?)
Because the light has gone out now
(The curtains are torn!)

I heard you in my half-sleep
I heard you in my half-sleep

The bulb must be replaced now
(Who left it on?)
Because the light has gone out now
(The curtains are torn!)

I heard you in my half-sleep
Go from the light to the struggle
I heard you in my half-sleep
Go from the light to the labyrinth
