Well I've been out at Dedham county

It was just plain robb'ry.
Pretending she could care
Dark shadows hanging over us

As you watch the lights dim low…

Indigo Flame
V1 We shine so brightly
Like an Indigo Flame
But the downs they get lower

Flying on down the road
At neck breaking speed
Losing control again
And soon we will bleed
The future is the present

Whichever way we’re going
We’re going way too fast
We do this to ourselves

I'm waiting for a package to arrive
I'm sitting idle hoping it's on time
It's not good for my health
I'm losing patience with myself but
