The Killers - Bright Lights - (Live Debut at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace) Night 1

  The Killers - Bright Lights

Standing in darkness 
With empty hands 
I still know how to use them but the miles made other plans
Running out of highway
Shorter on time
Feel the dead weight deepen and the devil coming down the line
 
The dashboard’s shaking
I steady the wheel
And I make every turn by memory, by feel
 
Towards a black horizon
An unbroken dawn
Will this endless stretch of desert road get me back where I belong
 
Will you turn the bright lights on
Baby turn the bright lights on
Cuz I haven’t forgotten where it is I’m from
Look out your window for me, here I come
 
Will you turn the bright lights on
Baby turn the bright lights on
Put me back on the corner and I’ll sing my song
I’m a shoo-in tonight, turn the bright lights on
 
I carry my own weight
And then some too
There are things I would change but it ain’t worth going through
Maybe I’m tapped out
Or just plain old tired
Tonight the charge is rewrote 
But I’m still hardwired
 
Will you turn the bright lights on
Baby turn the bright lights on
Cuz I haven’t forgotten where it is I’m from
Look out your window for me here I come
 
Will you turn the bright lights on
Baby turn the bright lights on
Put me back on the corner and I’ll sing my song
I’m a shoo-in tonight, turn the bright lights on
 
We turn the bright lights on
We turn the bright lights on
We turn the bright lights on
We turn the bright lights on
We turn the bright lights on
We turn the bright lights on
We turn the bright lights on
We turn the bright lights on
We turn the bright lights on
 
We turn, we turn, we turn the bright lights on
We turn, we turn the bright
You know I think it’s gonna be alright
You know I think it’s gonna be alright
You know I think it’s gonna be alright
You know I think it’s gonna be alright
Tonight, tonight, tonight yeah
 
You know I think it’s gonna be alright
You know I think it’s gonna be alright
Just hang back and let me sing my song
Turn the bright lights on
 
Turn the bright lights on
Turn the bright lights on

  Delta Spirit - Salt in the Wound

I want to disappear
Far from the folks I know
I want to get an answer
To why I was even born
No one here can tell me
What's been haunting me all my life
Well, this rat race has left me limping
'Cause I balanced on the edge of the knife
Why am I here?
Oh, what should I do?
Well, is this the point I'm trying to prove?
If there's a God in my head
Then there's a devil too
How can I tell the difference
When they both claim to be true?
Maybe God is God
Maybe the Devil is me
Well, I just throw my chains on
And tell myself that I'm free
Chains, are they really there?
Is this just in my head?
Well, I'll just stay in bed
Life sure has its meaning
Over years I have postured the sun
Thieves and preachers robbed me
For many hat that I've hung
Now with my heart wide open
I listen to the wind just for a word
Sure, I know it's futile
But that's all I have in this world
To look down from the hill and howl at the moon
All the tears I cried never salted any wounds
Well, the earth is so tender and cruel
Well, if you're not there it's still so beautiful
