So Many Suns - Light Show

Moon, street, head, flashing red at the crossbuck
Solitary bird shot, smack a windshield, "aw shucks"
Colossus huckster in the mirror, hawk a short cut for a beer
First sign that winter is here, or maybe there? Toss up
Homogenize the drive home daily, see two vacancies are on the search for nothing, Really
Warning: Someday I'll fall from orbit, not today
Miles piledriven into dissipating waves, a blinker clicking in the cerebellum sells me on The cake
Pencil-necking in a misadventure, left meet right brain, "Hey"
Here comes the train, shadow man stumbling beneath a falling gate
Nerves of steel Sticking to the fate
Here comes the locomotive, arms are open, feet are frozen
A hug for the conductor, Settle in for the explosion
Gut punching through the car horn
Turns and lifts up one arm, flips the archetypal finger
Looks back, lights on

Joined a search party and I stayed for the light show
I stayed for the light show

Today a lady jumped into a lake I like to fish in
Temperature in the sixties, she was reported missing
I wonder about the shape of her anchor
And how heavy was the pull to prematurely maybe meet her maker
And if the savior ghosted her then maybe I could save her
Before I'm beaten to the punch by a neighbor
It takes a village and our blue and red ain't used to getting wet
They probably need all the good help that they can get
Grabbed my flashlight and shiny silver badge with the sticky back
Slapped it on my hunter vest, snap the trapper hat
And the caption will read, "Local man pulls damsel from the lake"
'Cause not every hero rocks a cape
Past the yellow tape, join the rank marching across the bank
Spotlight the bracken, heed the sirens on the flank
Scanning every single piece of litter in the grass and then it hits me
I could be on a podcast

Joined a search party and I stayed for the light show
I stayed for the light show
