So the sign of coming events
Flickers with missing words
And the bright blue city where
My friend have played
Fades from the corner of an eye
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/r/robert+pollard/artificial+light_20310278.html ]
Tell my foes I'm captain tonight
Tell my folks I'm dead
I don't wanna see them
Artificial light I'm clinging
Artificial light
And praying it won't burn out
Artificial light
