lyrics

"This city crawls at dawn" she said,
"And it breaks my mind,
When the stars are gone
And the roads just grind."

Night is burning, thick with threat-
She paints the air with a cigarette-
I turn my face, I beg and chide,
But she wants to ride

She drops the locks
And the gears shift;
We pass my door in fourth or fifth.
Her eyes are blank, the engine hums;
Every colour starts to run;
She dips the lights
And the shadows writhe
On this midnight drive

Her grip is tight, her breathing slow.
Faure rules the radio;
Her voice is soft, dull as lead,
Whispering to the road ahead:

"I am the Light, I am the Law";
Street-lamps howling past my door,
The moon is curling like a scythe
On this midnight drive

Miles are spinning off the clock,
Wind is screaming, windscreen rocks,
There is just one way to stop!
She's got a face like thunder
As her fingers wander

On this midnight drive
