Lyrics Black Light - The Dream Syndicate

Black Light

Crawled out from beneath the rock
Crustacean rough and steely strong
A weathered eye with a ticking heart
I know where and why but not how long
Exposed against the night
Colors flip and reunite
Under the black light
Sucker punched the misery truck
Suis Generis, random luck
Trick the body but the mind won’t follow
The mission is mighty but the foundation is hollow
Revealed by the night
Switching the polarity of sight
Against the black light
I work far below the surface
Waiting for semaphore of light in the dark
And they play for me with synergy, lethargy, fantasies
Broken needles and dead batteries
Suspended by the night
It’s funny the things you see
When you flip on the black light
Exposed against the night
Colors flip and reunite
That’s the lure of the black light
