Signal To Noise

you know the way that things go

when what you fight for starts to fall

and in that fuzzy picture

the writing stands out on the wall

so clearly on the wall

 

send out the signals deep and loud

 

and in this place, can you reassure me

with a touch, a smile - while the cradle's burning

all the while the world is turning to noise

oh the more that it's surrounding us

the more that it destroys

turn up the signal

wipe out the noise

 

send out the signal deep and loud

 

man i'm losing sound and sight

of all those who can tell me wrong from right

when all things beautiful and bright

sink in the night

yet there's still something in my heart

that can find a way

to make a start

to turn up the signal

wipe out the noise

 

wipe out the noise

wipe out the noise

 

you know that's it

you know that's it

you know that's it

 

receive and transmit

receive and transmit

receive and transmit
