Painted in Light - San Pedro

Trip and fall into the sunken city
Where the setting sun makes the world look pretty
All the colors blend into a sand art dream
And the crashing waves making your senses gleam

Sitting still I feel the world turn 'round
If I could scream out loud it wouldn't make a sound
I am one with the sky, I am one with the Earth
I am witness to the celestial birth

You might know where you're coming from
You might see a point past the setting sun
But as you're standing on the hill gazing below
You watch the lights go down over San Pedro

Steam is rising from the orange glow
As the refinery puts on its evening show
There is beauty in the rust and the dust and the cracks
I'm in awe of the toil and the broken backs

Of all the bleeding hands that have shaped the land
All the broken shells lying in the sand
Or like the concrete slabs left to lie in the dirt
Can we predict in time what will be of worth

You might know where you're coming from
You might see a point past the setting sun
But as you're standing on the hill gazing below
You watch the lights go down over San Pedro
San Pedro
San Pedro
San Pedro

You might know
You might know
You might know
You might know

You might know
You might know
You might know
You might know

You might know where you're coming from
Yeah you might know where you're coming from
Yeah you might know where you're coming from
You might know

You might know where you're coming from
Yeah you might know where you're coming from
Yeah you might know where you're coming from
You might know

You might know where you're coming from
You might see a point past the setting sun
But as you're standing on the hill gazing below
You watch the lights go down over San Pedro

You might know
You might know
You might know
You might know
