When I Go Clear

Blood red the brake lights
 As he drove you away
 Slowed down at the corner
 As if letting you pay
 Your respects to the ground cold and grey
 The time you spent walking away
 Rearranged our faces
 Tried to fit in
 We laid it on thick but
 It came across thin
 We were all left feet in all right shoes
 You were dancing
 And I was dancing too
 Said when I go clear
 It will be with someone like you
 Someplace not unlike here
 Someplace not unlike here
 Said when I go clear
 It will be with someone like you
 Someplace not unlike here
 Someplace not unlike here
 Cut a scar through the city
 On watchful stone
 Passed well-meaning buildings
 On afterthought roads
 We were ambulant monuments too
 The streets that left
 Their arms around you
 Said when I go clear
 It will be with someone like you
 Someplace not unlike here
 Someplace not unlike here
 Said when I go clear
 It will be with someone like you
 Someplace not unlike here
 Someplace not unlike here
 I remember you vaguely
 When I remember at all
 Some peeling poster
 Some autographed wall
 And steps just the drumroll
 For a firing squad life
 And pull the back the blindfold
 And looked into its eyes
 Said when I go clear
 It will be with someone like you
 Someplace not unlike here
 Someplace not unlike here
 Said when I go clear
 It will be with someone like you
 Someplace not unlike here
 Someplace not unlike here
