The Passenger
The Wallflowers
Composição: Jakob Dylan

Permission now to let this thing land
I’m too far gone to know where I am
Conditions are worse than we planned
Permission now to let this thing land

Heading straight into the blackness
Beyond the point of ever turning back
Slipping off the radar through a hole in space
Goes the passenger sitting backwards

Adam took the apple, I was not involved
I’m not responsible for how lost we are
Batten down the hatches, extinction calls
But Adam took the apple, I was not involved

Heading straight into the blackness
Way beyond the point of ever turning back
Slipping off the radar through a hole in space
Goes the passenger sitting backwards

May be a rumble
Maybe nothing more
Maybe a thunder
There before she blows
Maybe not a big bang
But just a little white noise

Into the furnace of red twilight
Threading like a needle through searchlights
Fading further and spinning right
Into the furnace of red twilight

Heading straight into the blackness
Too far gone, now there’s no turning back
Slipping off the radar into a hole in space
Goes the passenger sitting backwards

It was dark and i was driving down a lonely texas road
The night was hot and sleep pulled at my eyes
I was thinking bout the wild times and the women that i’d had
The deceitful things i’d done and those lies

When standin’ in the shadows at the side of the road
Stood the figure of a withered old man
He wore a black bandana a ropin’ stetson hat
With a two inch scarlet hat band

He held his wrinkled hand up as a sign to shut ‘er down
So i pulled over and stopped at his side
He opened up the door slid in and sat down
And said my ain’t it hot tonight

I studied this old man and it seemed mighty strange
For him to be out here all alone
And then he started talking and he told me many things
Of times that both of us had known

He told me of the wild life and the women that he’d known
How none of them had ever meant a thing
He told me of a black night much the same as this
Of the strange and awesome things he’d seen
A man beside the road had raised his hand
And flagged him down so he stopped and let him in
That stranger told him stories that i am hearing now
Bout the wild times and all the sin

And the car got cold and clamy and this old man looked at me
He said boy i’ve come here for you
Your days of wicked sinnin’ have come to an end
As a mortal on this earth you are through

Then his eyes got red and firey as he took his stetson off
To reveal his evil horns shiney and black
My god the fear came o’er and my senses were all lost
I fought with him until we finally crashed

Next day they found the car at the bottom of the draw
The young cowboy was found beside the wreck
The car had been consumed by fire
But the cowboy had no marks
Except the smokin’ pitchfork brand upon his neck

I didn’t know you were there
until you said "hello."
You had been watching me
for I don’t know how long.
I hit my head against the lamp,
as by surprise I stood up.
"Don’t be afraid," you said,
"it’s only me- The door wasn’t locked."
The voice I’d heard in the hall
was hard to recognise.
But now we know he’s onboard,
wearing our disguise.
If only you and I could trust
each other through this,
then together we could
work out who
the enemy is.

A telepathic line to a shadow
On the wall, just a passenger and that is all
Taking off on a midnight flight
The airline ticket in his hand held tight

Polar route, destination: oblivion
"can i take that little box that you’re sitting on, sir?"
"no, that’s alright, miss, i’ll hold it right here
I’ll need it later on when i go up in the air"
And one false move will give it all away
Just one false move will give it all away

Long distance calling everyone around
Bad connection, better let the operator dial
I feel the speed of the traffic zoom
A train in a tunnel and an empty room

Time for take-off, extinguish all cigarettes
In emergency, you know where the exits are
His hands are white on the box he grips
No one knows but it’s their last trip
And one false move will give it all away
Just one false move will give it all away

Long distance calling everyone around
Bad connection, better let the operator dial
Taking off on a midnight flight
The airline ticket in his hand held tight
And one false move will give it all away
Just one false move will give it all away

I am the passenger
And i ride and i ride
I ride through the city’s backside
I see the stars come out of the sky
Yeah, they’re bright in a hollow sky
You know it looks so good tonight
I am the passenger
I stay under glass
I look through my window so bright
I see the stars come out tonight
I see the bright and hollow sky
Over the city’s a rip in the sky
And everything looks good tonight
Singin’ la la la la la-la-la la
La la la la la-la-la la
La la la la la-la-la la la-la
Get into the car
We’ll be the passenger
We’ll ride through the city tonight
See the city’s ripped insides
We’ll see the bright and hollow sky
We’ll see the stars that shine so bright
The sky was made for us tonight
Oh the passenger
How how he rides
Oh the passenger
He rides and he rides
He looks through his window
What does he see?
He sees the bright and hollow sky
He see the stars come out tonight
He sees the city’s ripped backsides
He sees the winding ocean drive
And everything was made for you and me
All of it was made for you and me
‘cause it just belongs to you and me
So let’s take a ride and see what’s mine
Singing…
Oh, the passenger
He rides and he rides
He sees things from under glass
He looks through his window’s eye
He sees the things he knows are his
He sees the bright and hollow sky
He sees the city asleep at night
He sees the stars are out tonight
And all of it is yours and mine
And all of it is yours and mine
Oh, let’s ride and ride and ride and ride…
Singing…
