lyrics

Sending up flares
In the middle of nowhere
They light up the sky
Fall into dark
And dissolve there

Sending up flares
Each one a prayer
That someone will see
Someone will hear
And know that we're out there

Dead on the shoulder
Broke down on the side of the road
Somewhere north of Aberdeen
We ran out of gasoline
And hope

Sending up flares
They arc through the air
Sparks of red in the black
Pollock on zodiac
My heart is in disrepair

There are people everywhere
Even where we used to wander alone
There's no getting away
No secret escape
But tonight they're all elsewhere

In the countries of sleep
Blithely unaware
Sitting at home
Sedated and stoned
Staring into a phones glare

Climb the high hills
Look down on the valley below
A motherboard of lights
Stretching into the night
In a warm orange glow

And if you look to the sky
Every second or two
Flares call in distress
Dispatched from the dispossessed
Calling out to you
Sending Up Flares
Sending Up Flares
