LIZ PHAIR LYRICS - Red Light Fever

"Red Light Fever"



Lying wide awake in the dark

Tryin' to figure out where you are

Always goin' nowhere

'Fraid of goin' somewhere

Somewhere's a place in your heart



Sometimes when I think about you

Why you're always running away

Sitting in your car

Changing who you are

Drowning the thoughts of you like in the music



Scared the lights will turn green

You'll have to be seen

You'll be like anybody else

Scared the lights will turn red

You're stuck in your head

You can't run it to even her

How you gonna get through the year

You can't



Playin' on the sides of the night

Too many people want too many things

And you only to forget



Scared the lights will turn green

You'll have to be seen

You'll be like anybody else

Scared the lights will turn red

You're stuck in your head

Too scared to commit to even her

How you gonna make it through



You're always listenin'

You're always listenin'

You're always listenin'

To yourself



You're always thinkin'

You're always thinkin'

You knew what everybody else

Should do with their lives



Lying wide awake in the dark

Tryin' to figure out where you are

Always goin' nowhere

'Fraid of goin' somewhere

And somewhere's a place in your heart

Somewhere's a place in your heart



Scared the lights will turn green

You'll have to be seen

You'll be like anybody else

Scared the lights will turn red

You're stuck in your head

You can't run it to even her



Scared the lights will turn green

You'll have to be seen

You'll be like anybody else

Scared the lights will turn red

You're stuck in your head

Too scared to commit to even her

How you gonna get through the year
