If you could see yourself the way that I do You might change a thing or two You wouldn't look so angry You'd know it doesnt look good on you So grab your coat And grab your hat There ain't no stayin if we're comin back
Cause something's gone So terribly wrong Here in pleasantville
Do you remember how we'd stay out so late We use to have so much fun We use to wish that the mornin' sun just would never come Look at us now We're tucked in tight We're just praying for a little light
Cause something's gone So terribly wrong Here in pleasantville
I need to tell you now as we leave That it's much worse than you would believe And no matter how far you've been The beginning, that's where you are So I'm using my last match I'll put a fire up on every hill And burn down Pleasantville
We never did learn to use our voices We never thought we'd be heard The only way they'd ever listen If we scream every word Beause there ain't nothing in our walk That just aint the kind of luck that we got So let's move on
Cause something's gone So terribly wrong Here in pleasantville
My mind is open And my heart is full I ain't got any weight That I can't pull And right now I know that anything Is possible I'm gonna hang my drum Blow my horn I forget what these pills I believe I won't need them anymore I used to burn candles At both ends Now I just throw the whole damn thing Right in Now playing in traffic is easy Once you learn Where you get in You wanna come with me Then get on board Get in or get out Use either door The future is calling And it's me That it's looking for
*Cause it feels like summer again I was thinking that it just might never begin After winter and spring It's good to have the sun on my face again
I wear big boots I know I do I ain't envious Of anybodies shoes I wear 'em loose Now maybe that's Why it bothers you I'm building my ship Stick by stick And where the waters get rough I'm getting in The motion of the waves It does not Make me sick
* Repeat
I buried my horse In a shallow grave I said a few things I had champagne That beast gave me everything That nobody gave I got high hopes Tomorrow come I won't look back On anything I just found out That my bird Can really sing...
How soft a whisper can get When your're walking through a Crowded space I hear every word being said And I remember that everyday I get a little bit closer to you
How long an hour can take When you're staring into open space When I feel I'm slipping further away I remember that everyday I get a little bit closer to you
These are the days That I won't get back I won't her you cry Or hear you laugh And when it's quiet And i don't hear a thing I can always her you breathe
You know there's nowhere else I've wanted to be Than be there when you needed me I'm sorry too But don't give up on me And just remember that when you Were asleep I got a little bit closer to you
Slow down, You're breaking up Use your words, Don't yell so much I don't understand a word they you're saying
Now move in, Come up close You look like, You've maybe seen a ghost Tell me Has something gotten to you baby
Now open up your arms Pick up your head Open your eyes So you can see What happens next
*You won't believe Just how good it can get We'll make a lover
Out of you yet The fog is so thick, I can't see my hands It got much worse Soon as I got in And I know you're somewhere Here in the water
It's ten feet deep And the river won't stop I'll tell you what's in it When I make it across You could make it too If you let someone help you
But you gotta give in And you gotta let go Then you can begin To come up slow Like a desert rose
* Repeat
Take a deep breath, And hold it in tight And put your face up Right into the light Can't you feel that full moon Shining down on you Help is coming From the great unknown Just maybe not When you needed it the most Cause I can see you already Know that you're leaving
But I wish you'd stay And just let me in Cause everything can change But you gotta be ready Cause you won't know when
I, I wish you could swim Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim Though nothing, nothing will keep us together We can beat them forever and ever We can be heroes, just for one day
Oh I, I will be king And you, you will be queen Though nothing, nothing will drive them away We can be heroes, just for one day We can be, yes, it's just for one day
I, I remember Standing by the wall The guns, they shot above our heads And we kissed, as though nothing could fall And the shame was on the other side Oh, we can beat them, forever and ever Then we could be heroes, just for one day
We can be heroes We can be heroes We can be heroes We can be heroes, just for one day
I started a joke. Which started the whole world crying. But I didn't see that the joke was on me. Oh, no, I started to cry. Which started the whole world laughing. Oh, if I'd only seen that the joke was on me.
I looked at the skies. Running my hands over my eyes. And I fell out of bed. Hurting my heads from things that I said.
Till I finally died. Which started the whole world living. Oh, if I'd only seen that the joke was on me.

Oh, no, that the joke was on me. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm looking through you, where did you go I thought I knew you, what did I know You don't look different, but you have changed I'm looking through you, you're not the same
Your lips are moving, I cannot hear Your voice is soothing, but the words aren't clear You don't sound differnt, I've learned the game. I'm looking through you, you're not the same
Why, tell me why, did you not treat me Light? Love has a nasty habit of disappearing overnight
You're thinking of me, the same old way You were above me, but not today The only difference is you're down there I'm looking through you, any other way
