Redlight-Antennas to Heaven

[00:22.21]Redlight flickers in the dark [00:27.02]Throwing her electric shapes on the screen [00:31.74]A world of tiny colored spots [00:36.34]A world lacking that final dimension [00:41.45]And he watches, over tables and drawers that aren't his [00:46.16]He watches her flicker, illuminate, glance down at him from mounted on the wall [00:51.33]He watches because he trusts it [01:01.05]He trusts the walls without pictures and the surfaces without photographs [01:02.16]He trusts the sound of a zip over that of a door [01:05.60]He trusts the lock and key not being his [01:09.50]And the faceless cards that would let anybody in if they chose [01:15.03]Because he chose [01:19.96]She speaks only in silence [01:24.87]Without words, her mere presence is a sound [01:29.93]A dull hum that is there but not [01:34.04]She is only redlight [01:35.80]While he is emptiness [01:39.33]A card with a printed name [01:44.14]An unsigned dotted line [01:48.54]An empty mini bar [01:53.40]A forgotten badge crumpled on a forgotten lapel [01:58.63]But he has redlight every night [02:02.98]Redlight, wallpaper and minty breath [02:08.03]Because in the morning she is always gone [02:12.40]And then he has to ABC 1 his way to the car with a smile [02:17.53]And he will find foreign roads [02:22.29]And speak to static with a finger in his ear [02:27.17]He will find painted smiles that don't sign [02:31.58]And cheap wit cards to be crumpled in his wallet [02:36.63]He will drink spirits from paper cups [02:41.27]He will drink and laugh at the third dimension of the bar [02:45.97]And let the bar staff read his name to feel at home [02:50.72]He will find all of this and nothing else [02:56.01]He will find it and he will trust it [03:00.42]He will find it and he will trust it [03:05.27]He will find it and he will trust it [03:09.86]Because there is redlight in every turnoff on his road.
