They wrote your name on the subway walls
Kids would call it shock and awe
In the ruins it felt like home
Let's get stoned in the catacombs
But even if I was on the pills
Naked thrills wouldn't nick the pain
I just want you to notice
Every moment is all we've got

Even when in the summertime
The sun would tie my hands so tight
Everyone would call us cool
We'd spite the rules
Even in dull weather
I just want you to notice
I just want you to notice

I thought it was a great idea but I got myself in a hole
Yeah, I thought it was a great idea but I got myself in a hole
Just like I always do on the weekend
Just like I always do on the weekend

Someday the light goes out, yeah I know it
Someday the light goes out, my God I'm scared of it

Even when your sister called
The lights went dull, and I went bald
In the bedroom the songs were cold
I felt old and less enthralled
Even when I was on the pills
The naked thrills didn't feel the same
I just want you to notice
Every moment is almost gone

I thought I'd be good but I wasn't, makes myself feel sick
I thought I'd be good but I wasn't, can't make much sense of it
Just like I always do over again
Like I always do over again

Someday the light goes out, yeah I know it
Someday the light goes out, my God I'm scared of it
Someday the light goes out, yeah I know it
Someday the light goes out, my God I'm scared of it
