Maximo Park I Recognise The Light Lyrics

I visit South America via a dead
man's words: undercover priests
and barren parks. I visit through a
different man's images, exercising
in his underwear, laminating the
past. I've never been to Mexico
City, but I recognise the light.
I've never been to Santiago '"
its history keeps me up at night.
People sell mobile phone holsters
in shaded kiosks in an urban
sprawl that moves at a crawl.
I once took a European night train,
but now I wait for something to
enter the frame.
