Cold comfort's all you find
Begging for a little peace of mind
Keeping one step ahead of defeat
Drifting like a notion down the street

Oh Mercy, don't be shy
Lift my spirits, raise 'em high
Bright as a streetlight, louder than love
Show me the world I'm dreaming of

So far from where I began
Chasing the living end
A race for the finish line
Late though I know that I'm
Nearer now

Freeway shade
Hard luck hearts
Side by side
Worlds apart

Far from where I began
Chasing the living end
A taste for killing time
Lost but I know that I'm
Nearer now

So far from where I began
Chasing the living end
A taste for killing time
Lost but I know that I'll be found
Nearer now
Coming 'round
Nearer now
