Had a bad dream on the operating table I tried to scream, but I wasn't able They replaced my veins with cables Now I'll never be the same again I can't recharge your spirit I can see the light, but I can't get near it Echoes of your voice, but I can't quite hear it How did we end up here? I spent a lifetime lost A generation of lettin' go And now the daylight can't break through It's a long way back to you Another two years gone I spent forever lettin' go And I don't wanna face the truth It's a long way back to you Another day, slowly fadin' to sleepless nights Lie awake, empty spaces is a wasted time Push and pull, give and take couldn't make you mine, no And I just wanna recharge your spirit I can see a light, but I can't get near it Echoes of your voice, but I can't quite hear it How did we end up here? I spent a lifetime lost A generation of lettin' go And now the daylight can't break through It's a long way back to you Another two years gone I spent forever lettin' go And I don't wanna face the truth It's a long way back to you If everythin' heals with time Then why is our flame dyin'? (Dyin') If you don't want to get this right Then why are we still tryin'? (Still tryin') If everythin' heals with time Then why is our flame dyin'? If you don't want to get this right Then why are we still tryin'? If everythin' heals with time Then why is our flame dyin'? (Why is our flame dyin'?) If you don't want to get it right Then why are we still tryin'? (Why are we still tryin'?) If everythin' heals with time (I spent a lifetime lost) Then why is our flame dyin'? (A generation of lettin' go) If you don't want to get it right (and now the daylight can't break through) Then why are we still tryin'? (It's a long way back to you) If everythin' heals with time (another two years gone) Then why is our flame dyin'? (I spent forever lettin' go) If you don't want to get it right (and I don't wanna face the truth) Then why are we still tryin'? (It's a long way back to you)

Lessons learned and bridges burned to the ground And it's too late now to put out the fire Tables turned And I'm the one who's burning now Well I'm doing all right till I close my eyes And then I see your face and it's no surprise Just like that, I'm crawling back to you Just like you said I would, yeah Swallow my pride, I'm crawling back to you Yeah, I'm out of my head, can't wait any longer I'm down on my knees, I thought I was stronger Just like that, like you said I'd do Yeah, I'm crawling back to you Time can heal, but the scars only hide the way you feel And it's hard to forget how I left you hanging Holding by a thread, when everything is said I regret it Yeah I was doin' all right, thought I could make it Then I see your face and it's hard to fake it Just like that I'm crawling back to you Just like you said I would, yeah Swallow my pride, now I'm crawling back to you Yeah, I'm out of my head, can't wait any longer I'm down on my knees, I thought I was stronger Just like that like you said I'd do Yeah, I'm crawling back to you If you could find a way to give everything, I know you would And I would take it all back if only I knew that I could Lessons learned and bridges burned to the ground And it's too late now to put out the fire Just like that I'm crawling back to you Just like you said I would, yeah Swallow my pride, I'm crawling back to you Yeah, I'm out of my head, can't wait any longer I'm down on my knees, I thought I was stronger Just like that like you said I'd do Yeah, I'm crawling back to you Yeah, I'm crawling back to you Ohhh, yeah, yeah! Oh! Crawling back to you I'm crawling back to you

My dream girl, those eyes, that nose My private inside joke, sign the cast on my funny bone Floral sheets on long-given-up ghosts Haunt my bedroom at night and say "Let's get you home" They say "Grow up, be a man, 'cause until then You're nothing but a short-haired girl" But come and Braille-palm-read and hold my hand See my reason and "Goodbye cruel world" And oh my God, what's wrong with me? And the wife of Walter Keane, whose name right now's escaping me That's right, Margaret Dream girl, come, and sweep me off my knees I'd rather stay asleep than never see you wake up next to me Neon lights like heat lamps in the cold To incubate the shadows you can't stitch back to your soles And you seemed fine just a few days ago But CO2 and fish tanks do enough to get you home Well now you swear in your prayers telling time "Promise I'll never have fun again If you'd stop flying," but then you start crying "Never mind, you win" And far too late came far too soon And the love you never made became the things you'd never do Oh, sweet Mary Dream girl, come, but keep your hands off me Go on back to bed my love, I mean, That's where dreams are supposed to be So come on, William, grow up, be a man 'Cause until then they're gonna treat you Like you're just a little girl But come and Braille-palm-read, hold my hands and you'll see that It's me who cries mercy while your fingers curl And, oh, are you at all like me? Do you know what I mean? Or am I too close to see? Someone, anyone? Of the two things we do on our knees Watch me fold my hands just to crack my knuckles Well, here is the church, here is the steeple Open the doors, see all the people Alright, that's enough, let's get you home

I, Oh I, Can turn a gray sky blue, You see, I can make it rain when I want it to Oh I, Can build a castle from a single grain of sand You see, I can make a ship sail on dry land. Ain't happy am I with all the powers that I possess, Girl, you're the key to my happiness, And I can't get next to you, babe Can't get next to you. I've been trying a long time I don't know what to do Oooooo Let me say, I, I can fly like a bird in the sky I can buy anything that money can buy Oh I, Can turn a river into a raging fire I can live forever if I so desire Ain't happy am I with all the powers that I possess, Oh, you're the key, 'cause I can't get next to you, babe Can't get next to you.
