When do I stop feeling tired
To open my eyes to a state required
To see those half smiles smiling my way
Oh my, fake reply, you’re the apple of my eye
but the apples seemed to rot from the very core

When do I stop feeling shallow
Is everyone really this straight and narrow?
I’m jumping of this boat let’s get off together
Oh no, I’m going down, please someone make a sound
Let’s just sink to the ground and float on okay
But that seems like something I cared for
But it all seems like something I’ve seen before
Is there some kind of reason I’m scared or?
Am I lost?

Why do you look oh so bitter?
Can I cut your hair with a zig-zag scissors?
Let’s walk the cat around the park tomorrow
Let the forces of the maps and the way you point you hat
take us out to the ocean where there’s no way back

You got your eyes from your mother’s side
The mouth you got when the radio died

There’s a rooster with a mandolin and It’s cawing with the chords
he wonders if he wants to tour with reckless other birds
He wakes the village up when he is tuning in his dream
He never sleeps a wink, with the constant melodies

Dream the day away again

There is a deer in every headlights just waiting to be killed
He lives a life so tender but never feels fulfilled
He just prances around the forestry looking for a better world
but he never finds his peace when there is nothing to be learned

Dream the day away again

If you ever dream the day away, it might feel like a waste
Just think of all the unhappy ones who live their life in hast
And if for every moment sleeping is so sacred to your mind
It helps fight the monotony of every, waking life

Dream the day away again

It’s minus six in the stick of nowhere
We are finding ourselves out
The clock it ticks as the snow it slips
From the rooftops all around

The train goes by like a lullaby
We sing in our children’s ears
I’ll see you sink like a broken ship
The day you leave comes near

The city is weeping, while we are sleeping
The covers falling, while we are talking
I want to kiss you and I never want to stop
I can’t find the switch to turn everything off
I can’t find the switch to turn everything off

The words they go as the weeks run slow
We sing till they reappear
A packed suitcase and my heart will race
When you whisper in my ear

The beast it waits at the garden gates
It hides the pages green
It will never find your patient mind
With eyes of blue that scream

The city is weeping, while we are sleeping
The covers falling, while we are talking
I want to kiss you and I never want to stop
I can’t find the switch to turn everything off
I can’t find the switch to turn everything off

Oh, you are, the turning of the page
The sign, we’re chasing from our age,
oh the sound of our shoes
drifting through the snow
The roads are closed
They’ll never let us go

There’s no new way of saying it, I think about you a lot
There is no new way of thinking it, It would kill me if I forgot
There is still me and my old ways
There is still me, so concrete
I’ll never change around you
but I’ll forever change underneath

As I lay down on your bedrock, crystal and ore
Now I’m washed up from your ocean
Searching for gold

We had our fun but now I lay here as a stone
and if you are the sea and I once a boulder
worn down by your load
but, if you are the sea we’ll come and go as we please
time will tell our faith
I only hope when you are with me and I am older
I will be the stone on a mountain we create

As I lay down on your bedrock, crystal and ore
Now I’m washed up from your ocean
Searching for gold

What worse faith have we been shown,
than a fading memory
and it’s all now so far away,
You’re forever lost at sea
My message locked in a bottle
For you to find some day
Until then I’ll slide along
Until I Slide away

As I lay down on your bedrock, crystal and ore
Now I’m washed up from your ocean
Searching for gold
