lyrics

Stand up straight
It's time you started being a man, son
stop daydreaming, toughen up,
and quit wasting your time with girls

We burn the daylight
and even more when we have fire
Create worlds as we desire
no-one can stop, or slow, or tell us how to be

before
Streetlights come on
To tear us both away
To keep us from what matters
And each-other
Streetlights can never light the dark around our hearts
Or show us which way home is

Never cared much for dolls
or princesses
or fancy dresses
or boys

I want to shoot guns with boys
At boys
Oh boy, the trouble we could get into

when
Streetlights come on
To tear us both away
To keep us from what matters
And each-other
Streetlights can never light the dark around our hearts
Or show us which way home is

In that time before it's dark
When the lights come on too early
We shuffle out of the canal
cut across the fields and take the train tracks
And when the cold blue light
shines against our burning sky
Is it day or night?
And if it's our time, what are we?

When the
Streetlights come on
To tear us both away
To keep us from what matters
And each-other
Streetlights can never light the dark around our hearts
Or show us which way home is
