Fractured Air

From the delta to the plains Storms touching down again Devil's hiding in the house Angel's in the rain Corrugated lovers swinging on a wire Switching on and off the breakers On a night like this No one should be alone In the fractured air Misfired from a distress flare All the while searchlights reconcile Cut their losses and run Clinging to the rooftop Losing track of days Devil's up in the attic And angel's lost her way Must've mis-dialed the number Or the telephone's died Lost you in the darkness and never heard back Dropped out from the night like a stone Falling from the fractured air Misfired like a distress flare All the while searchlights reconcile Cut the losses and run
