Drive through nights on empty roads Hoping the clubs promote our show Wasting days in endless naps Find new ways to fill the gaps Another word game with the band Another losing rummy hand Another night slept in the van I'm forced awake again in time to take the stage (the van) And as my dream world fades another takes it's place (the van) I look into the crowd and see myself through stares (the van) Back when I hoped someday I'd be the one up there (the van) Reading to save our numbing minds Meeting new friends we'll leave beind Lay on the loft and trace the stars Start the day in no ones arms Another night without a sell Another meal at Taco Bell Another story I can tell I'm forced awake again in time to take the stage (I can tell) And as my dream world fades another takes it's place (I can tell) I look into the crowd and see myself through stares (I can tell) Back when I hoped someday I'd be the one up there (I can tell) 2, 3, 4!!! I'm forced awake again in time to take the stage And as my dream world fades another takes it's place I look into the crowd and see myself through stares Back when I hoped someday I'd be the one up there I'm forced awake again in time to take the stage (up there) And as my dream world fades another takes its place (up there) I look into the crowd and see myself through stares (up there) Back when I hoped someday I'd be the one up there (up there)
