[Verse]
3 am
You stood on a grassy expanse
A nuclear reactor
Humming deep beneath your feet

[Pre-Chorus]
To your right: the observatory
To your left: a deserted parking lot

[Chorus 1]
You hadn't seen the stars
So clearly in years
They seemed to form
An elaborate diagram

[Bridge]
Suddenly, a pair of headlights
As they swept across the asphalt
They revealed a figure in silhouette
Impossibly tall

[Chorus 2]
You could see a network
Of roads spanning the continent
[Outro]
Something dropped
And you went home as someone else
