lyrics

I dreamt I was in a Woody Allen movie
In the middle of New York City
Just about to win her heart
Flying thru Central Park
But I woke up in Detroit
Now I'm just as cold and vacant
As all of these crumbling buildings
Just waiting to turn to dust
Turn to dust and rise again
But I woke up in Detroit

Throwing Flares up to the sky
Hear them whistle --- Feel them cry
Throwing Flares up to the Dead Grey Sky Lord why??

I used to feel like living
I used to hear birds singing
I used to feel like giving
Aint nothing left but Sin
When you wake up in Detroit
Yea, I woke up in Detroit
