Two strong steps on the pavement and we’re on our way
Made an acquaintance tonight I won’t forget or ever meet again
He said ‘there must be someone here who is not afraid’
Come now, planes fall out of the sky when it rains

Be calm, take a moment to relax
Today we all admire an interesting fact
Reporters cry, once! twice! again!
We’ll ignore it all and get away without them

But I’m quite simply useless without my medicine
And I’m worried about how tall the buildings are, and who built them
I can see it in their faces, I can see it in their stares
Let’s save our sanity even if we can’t save their’s

Be calm, take a moment to relax
Today we all admire an interesting fact
Reporters cry, once! twice! again!
We’ll ignore it all and get away without them

We’ll meet in the city underneath a neon sign
That calls the fleeing forward, and just into the light
We’ll meet in the city where nobody will see
To let the bodies file out and realise they are free
