i've been in such a dark place
but now the light is there
literally staring me in the face
it's coming round the corner
at a hundred miles an hour
sneaking round the edges
shining like a signal tower
from outer space
the car stereo went silent
and all of us stopped breathing
for a heartbeat
and i let my foot off of the gas pedal and just felt us coast
felt the pavement through the rubber
felt a shiver run up my spine
and there was a gridiron of light up in the sky
yeah it was as big as a football field
and it was spinning
and in that first moment
none of us could believe our eyes
but none of us could say it
none of us would say it
