The signal\'s changing, but I\'m paralyzed Stuck in the middle with no compromise The walk sign\'s flashing, then it fades to grey Just like the words I never learned to say Cars are rushing past on either side Kicking up the remnants of the evening tide We\'re living in the amber light Neither day nor deepest night We\'re too scared to stop, too scared to go And the tension\'s all we seem to know We\'re waiting for a sign that\'s never sent At this road\'s ambiguous testament I see your face in the window of a passing bus A ghost of us, a ghost of trust And for a second, I think I see you wave A promise that you might try to be brave But then it\'s gone, and I\'m still standing here Swallowed up by my own fear We\'re living in the amber light Neither day nor deepest night We\'re too scared to stop, too scared to go And the tension\'s all we seem to know We\'re waiting for a sign that\'s never sent At this road\'s ambiguous testament The amber light will always turn to red Or finally to green, the choice is ahead But standing in the middle is the hardest place to be A portrait of uncertainty The light is changing... But I\'m still here... In the amber... Alone.
