Nightshift
LowCityRain Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Deep down beneath the trees
I count every steps leading further
I crawl over my life, I see your smile
Running into the deepest shadows

Red light!

Do I still have a soul, please let me know
If my face is still one I had

Bright lights!

Is this nightshift my new lover?
Eye for an eye, just come closer

I"m stopped by the hands behind my shoulders
Lights shout as the angels cry

I fall into nowhere place, it"s not
It"s not cold, it"s warm, it reminds me of us
I call your name behind the window
I try to get inside, here deeper

Red light!

Do I still have a soul, please let me know
If my face is still one I had

Bright lights!

Is this nightshift my new lover?
Eye for an eye, just come closer





Bright lights!
Bright lights, come closer

I missed this in 2013.. Took a couple tracks in, but I like it. Sneaks up on you. Now I feel like those snobs that say "I just don't get that art."
