Cut the ropes, cut the ropes, cut this empty road
Unplug this factory town
I'll take my compass down


Departure boards, double doors, humming exit signs
The tracks and railway lines,

God, I miss your style

Get up, get out

It's no good now
Light that lighthouse light
Through telescopic sight, I'm sailing home tonight


Are we going to make this last?
I think I spoiled it all last night, and for what!


We float like spectres on the corner of the street
'Til we find our way back home

Emergency! Emergency! Emergency!

Cut the ropes, cut the ropes, cut this empty pulse

Replace it's hollow sound
I'll take my compass down


Get up, get out
It's no good now.
You are out of sight, I want you here tonight.


Are we going to make this last
I think I blew it, there's a surprise


We float like spectres on the corner of the street
'Til we find our way back home

Do you remember the lives we stole from songs?
Emergency


We float like spectres on the corner of the street
We lost our way back home
Emergency! Emergency! Emergency!


I know, I know. I know, I know
I know, I know. I know, I know

I know, I know. I know, I know

We float like spectres on the corner of the street

'Til we find our way back home
Do you remember the lives we stole from songs?
Emergency


We float like spectres on the corner of the street
We lost our way back home

Emergency! Emergency! Emergency!
