Cold grill and a blackened pot
Coffee in a heavy lot
Slinging eggs at half past three
Watching who is coming free
Silver trays and chipped blue plates
Waiting on the heavy fates
Copper coins on a greasy cloth
Sucking light just like a moth
Welcome to the New World beat
Walking on a heavy street
Static in the morning air
Looking for a way to where
Leather boots and denim blue
Searching for a hidden clue
Paper maps with ragged seams
Torn apart at all the beams
Welcome to the New World beat
Walking on a heavy street
Static in the morning air
Looking for a way to where
Steel rails humming in the cold
Stories that were never told
Bowed bass shaking in the floor
Open up the heavy door
Sugar packets on the wood
Doing what we always should
Short jokes in a low-lit room
Waiting for the city bloom
Oil stains on a white apron
Counting every door that's open
Distant bells in a hollow square
Scent of diesel in the air
Welcome to the New World beat
Walking on a heavy street
Static in the morning air
Looking for a way to where
Keep the coffee hot and black.
New World, no way coming back.
