lyrics

Stargazer in a wilderness
Of lattice masts and litter bins and fake success
Daydreamer, out of a thousand ways
To make a fool of oneself, this is what I picked

And from a tower’s height, late at night
Down there in the distance
Cars are glow ants, glow ants
Queuing in search of some light
Glow ants, on familiar trails
Maybe on the wrong track

Why be just a number, I couldn’t carry that load
An item ready to be scanned, doomed as a barcode
Early loner in a schoolyard microcosm
Teased and singled out where souls begin to blossom

And from a tower’s height, late at night
Down there in the distance
Cars are glow ants, glow ants
Queuing in search of some light
Glow ants, on familiar trails
Maybe on the wrong track

Oh there must be more than material ways
To our beautiful ephemeral days

And from a tower’s height, late at night
Down there in the distance
Cars are glow ants, glow ants
Queuing in search of some light
Glow ants, on familiar trails
Maybe on the wrong track
