Track Insight / Lyrics
Deserted drive-in stands in the night
A relic of days when life felt just right
Now emptiness fills every empty seat
The silence screams louder than any screaming repeat
The mammoth speakers stand naked, still
Their lonely mouths await a distant thrill
But even stars keep their distance now
Against this darkness, how can love somehow...
...
Find a way to light it up, to make it shine
Like a beacon in the twilight, always on my mind
In this fading light show, where dreams go to die
There's a beauty in the absence, in the goodbye
A wind stirs up lingering cigarette smoke
Dissipates it like a ghost's faint joke
Grass grows through the cracked pavement's cracks
Four-walled cinema where lovers sprawled back
The mammoth speakers stand naked, still
Their lonely mouths await a distant thrill
But even stars keep their distance now
Against this darkness, how can love somehow...
...
Find a way to light it up, to make it shine
Like a beacon in the twilight, always on my mind
In this fading light show, where dreams go to die
There's a beauty in the abandonment, the last goodbye
Rain falls soft upon this abandoned place
Washes away the time, the love, the face
Brings back the memories moment by moment
Like reels in an old movie breaking victim
Time keeps ticking, life keeps moving on
Leaving ghosts of moments all too gone
But maybe in this silence, in the dark
We find a peace that the noise would mar
Maybe in this silence, in the dark
We find a peace that the noise would mar
In this fading light show, where dreams go to fade
There's a beauty in the emptiness, the momentary shade
Flashlight beam dances shadows on the screen
Dimming, thinning, a movie never seen
Speckles of dust motes drift and settle slow
Echoes of a past that slowly starts to go
