Lyrics
[Intro] [Verse] Sweat is dripping off the pipe Amps are screaming in the night I can't hear a word you say This whole city's turned to grey Pushing through the basement crowd Everything is far too loud [Pre-Chorus] But I see it in my head Glowing bright and glowing red The only thing that feels real The only way I want to feel [Chorus] The red gas is humming low Nowhere else for us to go Flicker once and flicker twice Pay the heavy city price It’s the anchor in the dark Giving off a dying spark [Post-Chorus] Keep it on, keep it on Until the morning is gone Keep it on, keep it on Before the anchor is gone [Break] [Verse] The bodega’s on the brink Warped organ makes me think About the coffee and the dust And the hinges turning rust They’re building glass and steel towers Counting down our final hours [Pre-Chorus] I can see it in my head Glowing bright and glowing red The only thing that feels real The only way I want to feel [Chorus] The red gas is humming low Nowhere else for us to go Flicker once and flicker twice Pay the heavy city price It’s the anchor in the dark Giving off a dying spark [Bridge] Baritone bass in my chest Put the longing to the test The letter 'N' is fading out That’s what this is all about Don't let them pull the plug Underneath the concrete rug [Chorus] The red gas is humming low Nowhere else for us to go Flicker once and flicker twice Pay the heavy city price It’s the anchor in the dark Giving off a dying spark [Post-Chorus] Keep it on, keep it on Until the morning is gone Keep it on, keep it on Before the anchor is gone [Outro]
