|
all the fallin' freeze
|
the sunlit home of reality
|
it's a big step for you
|
but you got nowhere to go
|
oh don't you try to leave it
|
in the middle of exploding stars
|
you don't need covers
|
for a night
|
but soon you'll want to wait
|
settle down in the sea of late
|
you got to touch down easy
|
when it's getting dark
|
you got to touch down easy
|
to hit the mark
|
you got to touch down easy
|
when you feel the spark
|
'cause i'll be on my way
|
yeah i'll be on my way
|
you'll be fallin' free
|
or else you
|
need a little bit of sunshine
|
it's a big step for you
|
i won't see you smile every sunday
|
i know that you're feeling wobbly
|
and at times you get so lonely
|
no one to see no one to tell
|
that you were feeling that bad but
|
you got hope
|
when you look out your window
|
settle down in the sea of fate
|
|
i guess the time is coming
|
you're going to be out thumbing
|
looking for another reason
|
to follow it
|
follow it through
|
i know you think you're winning
|
everything you've ever given
|
i can tell you one thing true
|
i'm stallin' for fallin' for you
|
but take it with a grain of salt
|
know that it's not your fault
|
you can be a little blind sometimes
|
so won't you come back some back
|
instant replay come back
|
don't you kiss those dreams away
|
come back come back
|
you've been fallin' away for so long
|
you can reserve opinion
|
you can keep the heads a spinning
|
doesn't matter what you do
|
you're keeping it in the fire
|
tell me if it really matters
|
tell me if you're getting shattered
|
tell me if you're satisfied
|
feeling so starry eyed
|
come in for a little while
|
i know that it's not your style
|
no such thing as self denial for you
|
well won't you come back come back
|
instant reply comeback
|
i need you every day
|
come back come back
|
you've been away
|
for so long
|
i guess the time is coming
|
you're going to be out thumbing
|
looking for the other side
|
feeling so starry eyed
|
you know it takes a couple of tries
|
i know sometimes you talk with your eyes
|
i know you keep it all inside sometimes
|
|
if i would have been in some other place
|
wasting time in the nowhere race
|
oh oh i might have missed
|
the simple way you talk me down
|
if i would have taken a different road
|
or turned away when no one showed
|
oh oh i might have seen
|
a different kind of dream
|
and i might have missed
|
the way you look tonight
|
if i would have been in a different world
|
like i frequently am when i see you
|
oh oh i might have missed
|
all the ways you try to give
|
if only you knew what you do to me
|
sometimes i think about eternity
|
if it would have been another time
|
i wonder what you would of had in mind
|
|
maybe you're on a rocket
|
shooting for the moon and the stars
|
sometimes it ends up right in your pocket
|
or you just forgot who you are
|
maybe you're on a mission
|
trying to get a leg across
|
but nobody wants to listen
|
'cause everybody's getting lost
|
all we need is love
|
all we need is love
|
when it comes to push and shove
|
all we need is love
|
maybe you'd like a rainbow
|
forever up in the sky
|
or some kind of mythical figure
|
on which you could rely
|
maybe you'd like a reason
|
for keeping it all alive
|
better be ready change like the seasons
|
instead of keeping it all inside
|
maybe you're on a rocket
|
shooting for the moon and the stars
|
sometimes it ends up right in your pocket
|
or tapping on your reservoir
|
|
riding on the rickshaw
|
taking in the sights
|
passing all the sicko bars
|
pulling out a light
|
sucking in the super jets
|
blowing out the news
|
feels like a tragedy
|
i got the slicker city blues
|
the flowers of evil
|
the flowers of evil
|
the flowers of evil
|
will surely grow
|
crackle up your color box
|
count up all your change
|
make it all seem tolerable
|
get yourself enraged
|
give 'em all a sucker punch
|
bring it to a head
|
shove it down their throats
|
all eyes are flashing red
|
going through motions of life
|
dancin' 'neath the stars and the strife
|
dancin' by the sea stars
|
shaking up a shirt
|
throw away your language
|
keep from getting hurt
|
fallin' through the night
|
fallin' through the day
|
were living in some faulty times
|
you can hear them say
|
|
they tried to tear you away
|
they tried to lie in your face
|
they tried to tip you off sweetly
|
they tried to get on your good side
|
they never got the picture
|
they never got the joke
|
they never felt your fire
|
they only saw the smoke
|
they tried to tell you what's right
|
they tried to push you around
|
they tried to be what you wanted
|
they tried to get you for nothing
|
they never got too conspicuous
|
they never felt quite right
|
they never knew your darkness
|
they only saw your light
|
they tried to make you out stupid
|
they tried to come on like cupid
|
they tried to tell you what's real
|
they tried to stay on your heels
|
they never knew what ticked you
|
they never knew for sure
|
they always said they picked you
|
they never knew what for
|
they tried to pick you apart
|
they tried to be your best friend
|
they never got the picture
|
they never got the joke
|
they never felt your fire
|
they only saw the smoke
|
but they tried they tried and tried
|
and they kept on tryin'
|
crying while they lied
|
they tried to top you off sweetly
|
oh they tried and tried
|
they tried to get on your good side
|
to get on your good side
|
|
i could take you back to that time
|
conjure up some stories in your mind
|
you could make excuses for all the pain
|
get your disposition out of the rain
|
i could take you back to that time
|
oh you better hold on tight
|
you know it's going to be a shaky flight
|
you got to keep that dream forever
|
starry eyes
|
you got to keep that dream forever
|
got to keep that dream alive
|
i could take you further than you go
|
there's something about the dark you should know
|
everybody's waiting for somebody else
|
everybody's grating on themselves
|
oh i could take you closer than you go
|
|
mister meaner what ya doing downtown
|
mister meaner you got to get your body down
|
mister meaner it's what you do for free
|
you try so hard to slip this fantasy
|
who could ever take your side
|
who could ever break your stride
|
oh miss demeanor you feel you feel electrified
|
you come unscrewed
|
you keep keeping it all inside
|
oh miss demeanor how you feeling tonight
|
you got a short fuse and you're ready to ignite
|
who could ever feel your pain
|
who could ever jump your train
|
oh mister meaner who you hitting tonight
|
you're a big boy now
|
but you keep turning out their lights
|
who could ever break your heart
|
who could ever be so smart
|
|
they made you do it you didn't care
|
they made you do it
|
you teased your hair
|
they asked you why you did not know
|
they made you cry it didn't show
|
going through commotion
|
slipping on the steppin' stone
|
you came to the conclusion
|
you're playing in the fireball zone
|
they made you do it
|
that's what you say
|
they made you do it a night to play
|
they made you swallow you came around
|
it made you hollow
|
you stood your ground
|
they made you do it you couldn't fight
|
they made you do it to your delight
|
