[Verse 1]
I've done it again
Talons out to greet my guests
Late is always on time
Never with regrets
The paintings line the hallways
Copycats and tortured artists
All looking for the starry night
[Pre-Chorus]
And how many missed it
In the sea of glowing lights?
[Chorus]
Words escape my mind
Pass the tape, rewind
Replay every line
On, and on, and
We stayed up all night
Waiting for a sign
Mirrors in our eyes
On, and on, and on
[Verse 2]
It is the strangest behaviour
Arranging all these paper lanterns
As if they'll all stay in line
[Pre-Chorus]
And I'll miss it again
In the sea of glowing lights
[Chorus]
Words escapе my mind
Pass the tape, rewind
Rеplay every line
On, and on, and
We stayed up all night
Waiting for a sign
Mirrors in our eyes
On, and on, and on
