|
When the lights go out in the land of the free, |
|
all that I have is a need, all that I need is unclear to me. |
|
And it's all downhill once you learn how kids are made, |
|
even the dogs on the street have a little more dignity. |
|
Hell |
|
is a frozen lake |
|
breaking up in spring, |
|
changes everything. |
|
Don't close your eyes on me. |
|
You can dream, |
|
but everyday wake up again. |
|
Don't slip away from me, |
|
you can dream |
|
but you can't have everything. |
|
when you find yourself beyond the point of no return, |
|
think of the chances you missed, think of the years you were out of it. |
|
As the Limbo bar gets lower and there's less Limboists. |
|
Disaster stands on my doorstep, a Lucky Strike in her white lips. |
|
Hell |
|
is a crowded room. |
|
Heaven's just got you |
|
naked on all fours. |
|
Don't close your eyes on me. |
|
You can dream, |
|
but everyday wake up again. |
|
Don't slip away from me, |
|
you can dream |
|
but you can't have everything. |
|
Through it all, never surrender. |
|
And through it all, I'll never surrender. |
|
And you can't stand up anymore. |
|
Never surrender. |
|
Don't close your eyes on me. |
|
You can dream, |
|
but you can't have everything. |
