Firewater - Refinery Lyrics

Tonight

Strung out

Like a hazy web of lights

Until the dawn

And the rain

Is falling all along

The Rieperbahn

And you're goneAin't it strange

It seems like no one

Touches you these days

Must be unclean

And their words

Are haunting you

Like shadows veiled in steam

Neverending...



And she shimmers from the sky like a million golden opportunities

All scattered on the ground and floating in the gutters of your memory

She's written on the overpass and her broken promise sleeps besides the factory

She's ugly in the dawn and her dress flies on the fence below the refinery

Refinery



In the air

Anonymous

And floating in your chair

You rewrite the story

What's your name?

And you tell them who you are

And why you came

And they believe you..

Thinking back on nights

When you were just a broken doll

Behind the window

And you know

That no matter which way

You decide to go

You're never going back there..





And she shimmers from the sky like a million golden opportunities

All scattered on the ground and floating in the gutters of your memory

She's written on the overpass and her broken promise sleeps besides the factory

She's ugly in the dawn and her dress flies on the fence below the refinery
