Glued to the Light Songtext
von David & the Citizens

When I was very young and I was just a kid
I used to have this dream,
where I fell through the ground
My dad would laugh
as the arms of death
pulled me further down
So I couldn′t see his face

So why do you run, when I wan't you to stay
And why does my heart beat so fast today?
We got up and fell down every night
Glued to the light


Let me tell you something about that town
(Let me tell you something about that town)
With porn and rotten teeth
(With porn and rotten teeth)
Kids grew up ′round there but soon
(Kids grew up 'round there but sson)
Some got stuck in time

Came to life only in the blue
'Cause dreams′s the only thing to keep you going
Dreams′s the only thing to keep you sane

Sometimes I thought we'd be broken by age
But there always seems to be yet another page
Sometimes it′s like I'm not gonna last
and the last thing I need is this vicious laugh
We got up and fell down every night
Glued to the light...

So why do you run, when I wan′t you to stay
And why does my heart beat so fast today?
We got up and fell down every night
Glued to the light
We got up and fell down every night
Glued to the light
