I can’t see these things
Spinning ‘round my head
Don’t stop ‘til I’m dead
The things I’ve said
Come back to haunt me
When I’m feeling blue
What else is new?
I’m going to
The place I want
The place I see
When I’m asleep
The things I dream
I can’t see these dreams
Flying ‘round my head
Can’t catch them, instead
I wait ‘til they’ve fled
Oh [a lot of times]
The lights go out
I see no more
And I feel torn
Between these words
You know, all I’ve known
Since the end of space
Is the cold embrace
Of the people who chase
After nothing at all
The people cry
My life’s a lie
Please tell me why
You sent me away
To live alone
In a broken home
Like a sinking stone
Oh [probably too many times]
Take me far away
From my flying dreams
Whisk me off to a place
Away from my screams
Show me all the world
Before I’ve seen
The rest of time and space
In my flying dreams
The final words
My dead ears grabbed
Were simply “Have
To make amends”
I’ve never seen my face
Except reversed
In a mirror, worse
Is that I’m hurt
By nothing at all
I was left to die
By the hateful eyes
That you so prize
When I think of these things
I start to dream
And when I dream
I’m flying free
Oh [seriously though]
Take me far away
From my flying dreams
Whisk me off to a place
Away from my screams
Show me all the world
Before I’ve seen
The rest of time and space
In my flying dreams
I want it all
I want the world
I want the words
To tell you how
I fell from grace
Thanks to my dreams
It seems obscene
That one could be
Cast out from glory
For dreaming too hard
They dealt the cards
I’d dropped my guard
Now I’ve been sent away
To live alone
In a broken home
Like a sinking stone
Open your eyes
You were never blind
Look at me now, and let your heart decide
Save my life
Or let me fly
Open your eyes
You were never blind
Look at me now, and let your heart decide
Save my life
Or let me fly
Open your eyes
You were never blind
Look at me now, and let your heart decide
Save my life
Or let me fly
Open your eyes
You were never blind
Look at me now, and let your heart decide
Save my life
Or let me fly
'Cause either way I won't be home tonight
Either way I won't be home tonight
Home tonight
Home tonight, home tonight, home tonight
Ooh ooh ooh
Take me far away
From my flying dreams
Whisk me off to a place
Away from my screams
Show me all the world
Before I’ve seen
The rest of time and space
In my flying dreams
Take me far away
From my flying dreams
Whisk me off to a place
Away from my screams
Show me all the world
Before I’ve seen
The rest of time and space
In my flying dreams
