[Verse 1]
Caught the train to city fringe
My nose pressed on the glass
As fluoro cuts terracotta hues
Capeweed splits the tracks
I don’t notice the ticket man
Who’s asked me for the second time:
"Where are you going son?
There’s nothing left
We’ve hit the end of the line"
[Chorus 1]
I confused everything
I lost my sense of place and time
I blamed it on the data man
Who dropped me as I copped my fine
I heard nothing from you
I heard nothing from you
[Verse 2]
I’ve 50 cents for a dial tone
But your number is forever changing
I need a lift 'cause it’s getting late
I really can’t be bothered walking
I settle for a taxi cab
But I’m asked before I step inside:
"Where are you going son?
I’m turning left
I can’t take you if you’re heading right."
[Chorus 2]
I wandered on a bit
I wandered on through the night
Aimless and a little lost
Under trees instead of city lights
I heard nothing from you
I heard nothing from you
I heard nothing from you
I heard nothing from you
I heard nothing from you
