Lyrics:

DAY AND NIGHT
(Tonio K./T Bone Burnett)

day and night
these cities ring like an explosion
day and night
the buildings climb into the sky
day and night
the voices burn in through the wire
at the speed of light you can almost feel 'em go by
so many stories, every story's so complex
and it all goes by so fast you never know what's gonna happen next

and around and around and around and around we go
my head is spinnin'
where she stops nobody is predictin'
round and around the track so fast nobody knows who's winnin'
day and night
day and night
it's addicting

day and night
this traffic rides into the sunset
day and night
the people roll into the hills
day and night
these houses crawl over the landscape
yeah this desert is twitchin' with life but it all seems so still
once there was a river here, no one remembers when
now that river crashes through my veins like pure adrenaline

and around and around and around and around we go
my head is spinnin'
where she stops nobody cares to mention
round and around the track so fast nobody knows who's winnin'
day and night
day and night
what an invention

it's just a tiny blue green planet slowly circlin' the sun
you'd never guess it from a distance that there was this much goin' on

and around and around and around and around we go
our heads are spinnin'
bound to fly apart or bound for glory?
round this track so fast you wouldn't know if you were winnin'
day and night
day and night
day and night and night and day and day and night
what a story
