Late Arcades

Lyrics

There's a palace that I know All night shining, grinning gold Gives me neon by the sea Gives me pennies I can feed We saw poor Jimmy's eyeballs swivel in their slots The toxic logic after shots of Aftershock You feeling good yeah, have you got that penny drop? You wanna stay out picking petals off the clock? The hot pink drizzle breathes Drains the rain out to the sea From the city, from the city There's a new flame that I know Just the first name in a phone Are you rainfall, just like me? Is she drizzle? Is she dreams? Well, I went down in stages to the estuary And I spent all my wages in a palace of dreams Could these Fight Night bright lights ever lie to me? Monte Carlo, NYC... heard you're looking for me Down the late arcades Down the late arcades There's a sad song that I know Baby D or the Big O There's an aching I can't feed There's a feeling that I need Well, I went down in stages to the estuary And I spent all my wages in a palace of dreams Could these Fight Night bright lights ever lie to me? Monte Carlo, NYC… heard you're looking for me Now the midnight car lights fall across your face It's a late arcade night taking place You're high as kites in heavy weather Nothing ever lasts forever But I'll wait for you there, for as long as it takes… Down the late arcades There's an aching chasing me Taking me down to the sea From the city… from the city
