|
I had the strangest dream |
|
That you were lost at sea |
|
I found you drowning on the ocean floor |
|
I woke from my deep sleep to end the misery |
|
I found you lying outside of my door |
|
I tried to wake you up |
|
To shake you up |
|
And found out you were dead |
|
Like a leaf in the wind you left me standing alone |
|
To face the demons in my head |
|
We're making fiction of our lives |
|
Burning pages as we write |
|
We read the lies between the lines |
|
These dead letters won't survive |
|
A dusty record spins |
|
An old song plays again |
|
The needle dragging across it's skin |
|
Ink spills through my pen |
|
The paper soaks it in |
|
The music bringing tremors to my hands |
|
I can't just give you up |
|
Just lift you up to chance on a dragon fly's wings |
|
With my love in the wind you left me standing alone |
|
Hoping it brings you back to me |
|
We're making fiction of our lives |
|
Burning pages as we write |
|
We read the lies between the lines |
|
These dead letters won't survive [x2] |
|
We are not poets |
|
We have no right to make amendments |
|
This story's over |
|
This chapter's closing |
|
I don't know how it ends |
|
But I really don't like how it begins |
|
We're making fiction of our lives |
|
Burning pages as we write |
|
We read the lies between the lines |
|
These dead letters won't survive [x2] |
|
We're burning pages |
|
We're burning pages now |
