Stop the night, the night
My thoughts get louder after dark
Oh the lies

The crazies tell me this much
Aha!


It's a simple enough task boys
To find a living miracle
But the living ain't easy

I need a shot of medicine

Start the day, the day

My head denies I'm breathing
It likes to say
Am I here or leaving me?


There's a want I ask all the time
Possession of my right mind

You're not deaf but I still have to shout
Watch out there's a lot of thieves about


All along the way
I stand beside myself
And look at all my world

No need to tell me

I see dead men playing

I hear cries from many
I hear tears and then some
I hear hop I'm hoping


I'm caught with all the shutters down
Who's looking through my window?

I had to close the saddest eyes

You've got to be a winner

You've got to be cool

I see me inside you

I hear fear and then some
I see children playing
I see hope I'm hoping


Far away
I hear a memory calling me

I'd like to stay
But my obsession wants to play
