The rain hits the windshield in lines
The city is crossing the signs
You look like you've seen a ghost town
Before the whole world tumbled down
The meter is ticking too fast
The peace of the valley won't last
Hold your breath till the green light glows
Where the wind of the wasteland blows
Keep your eyes on the jagged line
In the shadow of a dark design
I drove through the sector of red
Where better men lay with the dead
You're clutching a map in your hand
Searching for a piece of dry land
The meter is ticking too fast
The peace of the valley won't last
Hold your breath till the green light glows
Where the wind of the wasteland blows
Keep your eyes on the jagged line
In the shadow of a dark design
Those ships in the sky aren't for show
They're coming to reap what we sow
The radar is humming a tune
Under a cold and a copper moon
Hold your breath till the green light glows
Where the wind of the wasteland blows
Keep your eyes on the jagged line
In the shadow of a dark design
Don't trust any man with a grin
That's how the bad stories begin
Just lean on the seat and stay low
Until we find a place we can go
Hold your breath till the green light glows
Where the wind of the wasteland blows
Keep your eyes on the jagged line
In the shadow of a dark design
The fuel gauge is hitting the floor
I can't take you out any more
The bunker is just round the bend
This is where the long journeys end
Hold your breath till the green light glows
Where the wind of the wasteland blows
Keep your eyes on the jagged line
In the shadow of a dark design
That'll be ten bucks for the ride.
Watch your step.
