Lyrics:
What in the world can it be?
Heavy the hand that's laid on me
Hot as a razor, cold ice age
Turning another open page
See the city far away
Like a dream I had today
These evil things don't rattle me now
Don't rattle me now

On the horizon, on the sea
Over the road of revelry
Down in the cancelled Avalon
Counting the hours until I'm gone
You see these cities far away
Like a dream I had today
These evil things don't rattle me now
Don't rattle me now

Seize the moment when you take a long hard look again
Morning stares back, says you're on your own
You're on your own, all alone like you've always known

See these cities far away
Like a dream I had today
These evil things don't rattle me now
Don't rattle me now
