No One Receiving - Brian Eno

It will shine and it will shudder

As I guide it with my rudder

On its metalled ways

It will cut the night before it As it leaves the day that saw it On its metalled ways

Nobody passes us in the deep quiet of the dark sky

Nobody sees us alone out here among the stars

In these metal ways

In these metal days.

Through a fault of our designing

We are lost among the windings

Of these metal ways

Back to silence back to minus

With the purple sky behind us In these metal ways

Nobody hears us when we’re alone in the blue future

No one receiving the radio’s splintered waves

In these metal ways

In these metal days.
