|
Take this pill, my dear |
|
It will keep you sharp and clear |
|
The side effects won't last too long |
|
It's stranger than it seems |
|
In your most peculiar dreams |
|
But it's nothing that won't fade with time |
|
Tuck the northern star in a candy jar |
|
And save it for a rainy day |
|
Shadows in the moonlight |
|
Always coming, always going |
|
While your cup is overflowing |
|
Shadows in the moonlight |
|
Just a matter of perspective |
|
It's all relative, subjective, |
|
It's alive |
|
Stand up straight and tall |
|
Keep your back against the wall |
|
Remember what they said to you |
|
A stranger in a crowd |
|
A halo on a cloud |
|
It's lost to you but it never really went away |
|
The muffled speech is out of reach |
|
But truth has got a way of breaking through |
|
(Chorus) |
|
Take these words my dear, |
|
And as they echo in your ears |
|
It's closer than you think |
|
(Chorus x 2) |
