Dreams so Real-Metric

[00:12.00]When I get to the bottom of it I sink [00:16.92]Seems like nothing I say [00:19.92]Ever meant anything [00:22.52]But a headline over my head [00:25.86]Thought I made a stand [00:28.89]Only made a scene [00:31.37]There's no feast for the underfed [00:34.59]All the unknown dying or dead [00:37.62]Keep showing up in my dreams [00:40.73]They stand at the end of my bed [00:43.82]Have I ever really held anybody but myself? [00:49.59]To believe in the power of songs [00:52.48]To believe in the power of girls [00:55.43]Though the point that we're making is gone [00:58.53]Play it stripped down to my thong [01:01.30] [01:01.66]I'll shut up and carry on [01:04.63]The scream becomes a yawn [01:07.33]x6 [01:36.85] [01:37.52]Our parents' daughters and sons [01:40.46]Believed in the power of songs [01:43.81]What if those days are gone? [01:46.45]My memory is strong [01:49.43]Anyone not dying is dead [01:52.76]And baby, it won't be long [01:55.48]So shut up and carry on [01:57.79] [01:58.54]The scream becomes a yawn [02:01.63]I'll shut up and carry on [02:04.08]x4 [02:22.64]The scream becomes a yawn [02:26.48]Baby, wherever you are [02:28.84]Baby, whatever you do [02:31.80]Faster than you think [02:34.83]Time staggers on [02:36.71]
