Year of the Vulture - The Wonder Years

Go! If you close your eyes, your life, a naked truth revealed Dreams you never lived and scars never healed (scars never healed) In the darkness life will take you to the other side Find me waiting there, you'll see if you just close your eyes If you just close your eyes If you just close your eyes Deceived by my eyes And all I was told I should see Opinions not mine The person they taught me to be One night in the dark of vision of someone I know And out of the darkness I heard a voice say "I'm you" Inside of me a light was turned on Then I was alive If you close your eyes, your life a naked truth revealed Dreams you never lived and scars never healed (scars never healed) In the darkness life will take you to the other side Find me waiting there, you'll see if you just close your eyes Hearts uninspired Trapped inside somebody's dream Too close to the fire Yet cold and so numb with the pain But the fever has broken, and the river has run to the sea Washed to the ocean and saved by a voice inside me Inside of me a light was turned on Then I was alive If you close your eyes, your life a naked truth revealed Dreams you never lived and scars never healed (scars never healed) In the darkness life will take you to the other side Find me waiting there, you'll see if you just close your eyes Never thought I would be here, so high in the air This was my unanswered prayer Defined by another, so much wasted time Out of the darkness, each breath that I take will be mine If you close your eyes, your life, a naked truth revealed Dreams you never lived and scars never healed (scars never healed) In the darkness life will take you to the other side Find me waiting there, you'll see if you just close your eyes If you just close your eyes If you just close your eyes

I can hardly bare the sight of lipstick On the cigarettes there in the ashtray Lyin' cold the way you left them But at least your lips caressed them while you packed And a lip print on a half-filled cup of coffee That you poured and didn't drink But at least you thought you wanted it That's so much more than I can say for me It's been a good year for the roses Many blooms still linger there The lawn could stand another mowin' Funny, I don't even care When you turned and walked away And as the door behind you closes The only thing I know to say It's been a good year for the roses After three full years of marriage It's the first time that you haven't made the bed I guess the reason we're not talkin' There's so little left to say, we haven't said While a million thoughts go racin' through my mind I find I haven't spoke a word And from the bedroom those familiar sounds Of our one baby's cryin' goes unheard But what a good year for the roses Many blooms still linger there The lawn could stand another mowin' Funny, I don't even care When you turned and walked away And as the door behind you closes The only thing I know to say It's been a good year for the roses
