Exiles

The studio's red lights
Are a smoke filled screen
Trying to find the sound
I can't say what I mean
Are we breaking up the band
The natural rules of dark arts
I think we like the feeling
Of falling apart

Well I remember everything I said
And I don't take it back
In the silence of this breakup
All my cracks are exposed
And then the night goes black on black

'Cause I recognize something in you
That makes me feel I'm not alone
I recognize something deeper than I've ever known
And we'll never change, we'll never have a home
This is ours now for awhile
We're exiles
We are exiles

A kitchen light at midnight
Our flatmates are asleep
Before she makes me go
It's about to go deep
You're gonna miss us when we grow up
I miss your sweetness and your grief
And I may be a mystery
But you were beyond belief

When Ziggy Stardust plays at a karaoke bar
And I can't remember the DJ's name
Everyone knows who you are
And we'll never change, we'll never have a home
This is ours now for awhile
We're exiles

We are exiles
We're exiles so
We are exiles so slow
We're exiles

Come and sing it out
You're the next best thing to the devil
Come and sing it out at the crossroads
At the crossroads, yeah

'Cause I recognize something in you
That makes me feel I'm not alone
And I recognize something deeper than I've ever known
And we'll never change, we'll never have a home
This is ours now for awhile
We're exiles
We are exiles
