Glued to the Light Songtext
von David & the Citizens

When I was very young
When I was just a kid
I used to have this dream
Where I fell through the ground
And my dad would laugh
As the arms of death
Pulled me further down
Till I couldn′t see his face

So why do you run
When I want you to stay?
And why does my heart
Beat so fast today?
We got up and fell down every night
Glued to the light


Let me tell you something about that town
(Let me tell you something about that town)
With porn and rotten teeth
(With porn and rotten teeth)
Kids grew up 'round there, but soon
(Kids grew up ′round there, but soon)
Some got stuck in time
And came to life only in the blue
Cause dream's the only thing to keep you going
And dream's the only thing to keep you sane

And sometimes I thought
We′d be broken by age
But there always seems to be yet another page
And sometimes it′s like
I'm not gonna last
And the last thing I need is his vicious laugh
When we got up and fell down every night
Glued to the light

So why do you run
When I want you to stay?
And why does my heart
Beat so fast today?
When we got up and fell down every night
Glued to the light
We got up and fell down every night
Glued to the light
