I'm watching the angst-ridden damned as they dance to industrial thunder all night
The girls and the boys share their works and their toys
in a place called "Where The Miracles Fly"
Where the miracles fly
The leathered and tethered all gather together in shadowy corners to grind
The sign at the bar says you're never too far out for where the miracles fly
A hazel-eyed child with a nail in her smile says I'm driving her our of her mind
She shudders and sighs an amphetamine sigh then ascends back up into the lights
Where the miracles fly
Where the miracles fly all night
Where the miracles fly
Where the miracles fly all night
They vow to die glamorous, violent and young but they're certain they never will die
They're just hungry for more in the methadone roar down at where the miracles fly
Where the miracles fly
They're kissing too deep and too hard and too long and they're holding each other too tight
They're chewing their lips and they're grinding their jaws; they're in love
Where the miracles fly
When the ecstasy thins into sweat on their skin and the chemical lightning subsides
They follow a "grin" with a swallow of gin and again they go off for a ride
Where the miracles fly
I want to live on a farm and raise a family
I want to bathe in a pail of morning rain
And wash away where the miracles fly
Where the miracles fly
Where the miracles fly all night
Where the miracles fly
Where the miracles fly all night
The chapped and the gloved promise undying love as they fondle each other goodnight
Out in the cold they look ghostly and old in the fog and the pre-morning night
A gallon of rum and a valium should quiet the hum in their ears and their eyes
They black out the day using blankets for shade
'Cause they're sick and they're certain they're dying
If they could just pass out 'till sundown
It will all be alright
They could head back to the underground
Where the miracles fly
