Bus brakes hiss, the streetlight starts to hum Pocket empty, camera in my hand I press my face against the glowing glass One last coin, then watch the moment pass Silver rattles, slips into the slot Vending machine says nothing, takes the lot Bus route flickers on the sign above I tap my pocket, searching for some love Streetlight catches dust upon the curb One cold soda and a worn-out word I hear a hum beneath the metal floor Like something hungry knocked behind the door Last coin spinning, silver in the slot Vending machine, it ate the whole lot Flash one soda, bright as a red dot Then let me find the courage that I lost I bend my knee and peer into the glass Vending shadow folds my dusty coat Pocket compass points beneath the floor Stale gum wrappers gather by the door Laundromat signs are blinking neon blue Taxi driver stares the whole way through I tap the glass, but no small window glows Another hungry shadow crosses those Last coin spinning, silver in the slot Vending machine, it ate the whole lot Flash one soda, bright as a red dot Then let me find the courage that I lost Diner coffee goes bitter in the cup Rain begins tapping on the window up Camera lens is fogged with early steam Buses shuffle every waking dream I pull a wire from beneath my shoe Coughs and sparkles, dust between us two Still the red eye keeps its patient stare Counting every breath inside this lair Last coin spinning, silver in the slot Vending machine, it ate the whole lot Flash one soda, bright as a red dot Then let me find the courage that I lost Convenience store is glowing seven days Guard is watching through the window's haze I lift the panel, find a copper vein A crumpled button and a rusted chain Something clicks behind the rows of brown Softly breathing underneath the town I hold my breath, then flash the coldest sign One green bottle pops like starlight mine Listen, machine, I'm running from the sun Beneath these streets, the quiet river runs Keep every coin inside your metal walls I'll take my chances when the daylight falls Rush-hour thunder rolls across the roof Half-lit billboards bend above the roof I grab a can, then bolt across the lane Peppermint thunder drumming through my brain Passing headlights cut the glass in two Silvery labels call me back like you Behind the door, a bottle slowly falls I catch the light before the daylight pales Last coin spinning, silver in the slot Vending machine, now give me all you've got Flash one soda, shining like a star Leave me something bright to carry far Last coin spinning, turning in my hand Machine, your hungry heart will never understand If one small mercy drops beneath the door I'll find a road I've never seen before Buses rumble, waking up the street One cold can rolls beneath my feet Silver echoes deep inside the glass Something bright is built to last
