Lyrics

Couldn't feel my legs and hadn't slept since my compass broke Out on a short street sidewalk now it's stuck on north Lights shot out into the sky in shades of red Under the Main Street bridge I'd lay my head ​ Maybe I left my home too soon Beat my insomnia by howling at the moon ​ I miss the lights over Scarlet Town I'm a little caught up but I'll be right down Scarlet Town I miss the lights over Scarlet Town They lift me up off my feet somehow Scarlet Town ​ Unlocked an elevator shaft just to catch a wink Stopped the door from closing with the bottle I drank Often I'd cry to St. Joseph each night I prayed He'd never hear me though, would he, through the haze ​ I don't care how far you've come Only time will tell if it matters to anyone  I miss the lights over Scarlet Town I'm a little caught up but I'll be right down Scarlet Town I miss the lights over Scarlet Town They lift me up off my feet somehow Scarlet Town ​ Angels I have heard on high Can't I get a bit more time? Give me one more chance I'll do it right ​ Angels that I passed on high They said hello as they walked on by My cup runneth over with nickels and dimes ​ Here's to every street etched in my mind Would you remember me when you see that city shine? ​ I miss the lights over Scarlet Town I'm a little caught up but I'll be right down Scarlet Town I miss the lights over Scarlet Town I'm a little caught up but I'll be right down Scarlet Town I miss the lights over Scarlet Town They lift me up off my feet somehow Scarlet Town
