It will shine and it will shudder As I guide it with my rudder On its metaled ways It will cut the night before it As it leaves the day that saw it On its metaled ways Nobody passes us in the deep quiet of the dark sky Nobody sees us alone out here among the stars In these metal ways In these metal days In these metal ways In these metal days In these metal ways In these metal days In these metal ways In these metal days Through a fault of our designing We are lost among the windings Of these metal ways Back to silence back to minus With the purple sky behind us In these metal ways Nobody hears us when we're alone in the blue future No one receiving the radio's splintered waves In these metal ways In these metal days In these metal ways In these metal days In these metal ways In these metal days In these metal ways In these metal days In these metal ways In these metal days In these metal ways In these metal ways In these metal days
