i only wanted the truth looking into no more feelings of doubt then someone showed me the root of all evil when all the lights were out shallow sleep just leaning am i leaving the game i must be dreaming lots of undercover dreams are always the same when the nights close in when the nights close well it s another night i waste at the opera with a permanent friend i should have taken direction much sooner another night in the air if the lights came on if the lights came on i d switch myself with someone else then i d shake myself things start to happen when i things start to happen when things start oh i can see myself running but i m standing still and i can hear myself screaming but there s no sound when i wake up crying life brings me down but it s not worth losing until it s found oh i can see my way home home i close my eyes and i m back by the ocean my hair feels wet i m on the brink of a lifelong ambition whatever dream comes next i m the seat of a hearse and guess who s driving i m with you all the way i hear the step of a fool who s coming all night never day then the lights came on then the lights came on i switch myself with someone else then i shake myself things start to happen when i things start to happen when things start i can see myself running but i m standing still i can hear myself screaming but there s no sound when i wake up crying life brings me down no it s not worth losing until it s found oh i can see my way home i m at a house all the windows are broken it s where i once used to live i must be losing all my undercover dreaming always the same i can see myself running still see myself running i switch myself running
