Chemical Light Lyrics

I can lick my wounds, I can make amends I can say my prayers, I can bow my head If I break my body, can you bury it? (Bury it?) I can live for you, a hundred times I can only die once, so time it right If I break my body, can you bury it? And sing for me a funeral hymn, let me hear you say: "You glow in the chemical light And the green in your eyes Makes you look more alive than you did before The kids are alright, we're living our lives" Yeah, we glow in the chemical light From that look in your eyes We're a little less alivе than we were bеfore The kids are alright, we're living our lives Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Funny how life changes with the time of the day Funny how our house is still stuck in the shade Is our side of the street the only one that is gray? Have noticed the neighbors don't live this way Live this way, live this way, yeah, I hear them say "You glow in the chemical light And the green in your eyes Makes you look more alive than you did before The kids are alright, we're living our lives" Yeah, we glow in the chemical light From that look in your eyes We're a little less alive than we were before The kids are alright, we're living our lives In the chemical, in the chemical light Now I'm breaking your heart as I'm starting the car And I'm driving away as we're falling apart Yellow lines, white lights turn to pastel in my eyes I could paint you a picture prettier than these times Now all we do is glow, I'll remember how you glow How you glow How you glow in the chemical light And the green in your eyes Makes you look more alive than you did before The kids are alright, we're living our lives Yeah, we glow in the chemical light From that look in your eyes We're a little less alive than we were before The kids are alright, we're living our lives Chemical, in the chemical Glow in the chemical light From that look in your eyes We're a little less alive than we were before The kids are alright, we're living our lives We're living our lives, we're living-- Greetings from Bleak Street Won't you come visit sometime? We glow in the chemical, we glow in the chemical Glow in the chemical, we glow in the chemical Glow in the chemical, we glow in the chemical Glow in the chemical, we glow, we glow We glow in the chemical light From that look in your eyes We're a little less alive than we were before The kids are alright, we're living our lives We're living our lives, we're living
