Riders out on the plain
We're eating lightning
we've touched the train
riders out on your town
we shot the sheriff who brought us down
well tell me now can you see it shine through you?
The inner truth like three combs from two
close your eyes tell me what do you feel
another wave crashing all that is real
free up and open your hands to
a world at your fingers
as your logic lingers
and you try to remember just being sane
but this feeling won't go away
Riders out on the plain
We're eating lightning
we've touched the train
riders out on your town
we shot the sheriff who brought us down
tell me did you touch the sun?
I think I opened up and swallowed the light
And I came right out of the end
to come into this new life
Or was it the moon that you saw?
And it's darkness you feared
as your demons appeared
You're finding the change from all that you cost
We're finding ourselves as we become lost
At What expense?
At your descent into madness
I can now see everything
as it's moving through my veins
Eating lightning isn't insane
when you've just got one life to live so live
I feel the waves crash but I don't hide
let it break us on through the other side
just close your mouth and you can see Mars
What's on your hands is written in stars
riders we are free
and what we can see
are worlds beyond words
do you believe me?
