River City Blackout

Vacant nights, synthetic lights
 Back where it started, no place left to
 Go this time, the discount wine
 Has clouded my mind, so I'll just have
 One more drink and spill more ink
 Let's raise a glass to burning bridges
 Set's the same, the players change
 So bundle up kid, now you can't go home
 Salad days, box 'em up and let it pour
 Step back, then light a match and close the door
 I guess that's just River City for you
 Step outside, watch cars collide
 Just keep on moving, all in the past
 Stop lights dark in Highland Park
 I take a right, make footprints in new snow
 Next year the skies look clear
 An optimist like January
 One weak smile, I've walked for miles
 I check the time, turn, inhale deep and go
 Salad days, box 'em up and let it pour
 Step back, then light a match and close the door
 I guess that's just River City for you
 Take in the moonlight
 Reflecting on strange times
 As seen through famine-stricken eyes
 Just try to walk on
 Salad days, box 'em up and let it pour
 Step back, then light a match and close the door
 I guess that's just River City for you
 Salad days, box 'em up and let it pour
 Step back, then light a match and close the door
 I guess that's just River City for you
