Is a runaway feelin' About as big as the sky? You know the Rock 'n' Roll feelin' Really make you feel high
Tell me I'm the one you wanna play with Tell me I'm the one you really need Tell me I'm the one you're bound to stay with When you're free to do what you please
It's a runaway feelin' (What you're feelin') Once you make up your mind (Make up your mind) To let the runaway feelin' (That you're feelin') Leave all your troubles behind (Leave them behind)

Among the living you'll find the dying Waiting softly to pass on Why can't a love be like a spirit As it floats up to the sky
With the giving there is taking Neither one feels like it's right And since your heart can't tell the difference You give up without a fight
Because you know it makes you cry 'Cause you can see what's passed you by Because you feel you can't decide Among the living
Instead of headstrong into darkness We should be drifting into light It's been a long time we've been searching And we still can't get it right
Because you know it makes you cry 'Cause you can see what's passed you by Because you feel you can't decide Among the living, breathing painted shells Crumbling as they fall
Because you know it makes you cry 'Cause you can see what's passed you by Because you feel you can't decide Among the living, among the living, among the living
Because you know it makes you cry 'Cause you can see what's passed you by Because you feel you can't decide Among the living
Hundred miles an hour down a twisting turning road Bottled up. shaken up, ready to explode
I set the world on fire I set the world on fire
Tired of making promises I know I won't keep Over you and what you do Tired of being deceived
I set the world on fire You can't put it out putting me down I set the world on fire So now you can watch me let it burn down I set the world on fire
Let it all burn down, ah All burn down, down
Tired of making promises I know I won't keep Tired of making promises I know I won't keep
I set the world on fire Let it all burn down I set the world on fire Let it all burn down I set the world on fire You can't put it out putting me down I set the world on fire Let it all burn down I set the world on fire Now you can watch me let it burn down

Dragonfly in a tidal waves Eyes have come undone Still the coastline's a mile away And the storm's just begun
Here goes nothing Heard him saying As he buzzed away
Dragonfly sees the tops of the trees From the C-130 door Flips a bird, puts his knees in the breeze And floats down to the war
Here goes nothing Heard him saying As he dropped away Here goes nothing Coming down Hardly makes a sound
Cover it up, cover it up Cover it up, cover it up Cover it up, cover it up Cover it up, cover it up Cover it up, cover it up Cover it up, cover it up Cover it up, cover it up Cover it up, cover it up
Here goes nothing Holy roller Finally blew a fuse Here goes nothing Read all about it In the front page news
Dragonfly makes a crown of thorns For a savior yet to come Still alive but his wings are torn And his conscience has gone numb
Cold outside, but I don't blame the weather No one's calling, no one's at the door But I can't stay inside all day Blinds pulled to the floor
There's no blue sky in my town lately Everybody looks at the ground And where I am is making me hazy But the sun never looked so pretty going down
It ain't right, it feels like forever So many changes, I stopped keeping score But if you want me, you know where I will be I don't get out much anymore
Well there's no blue sky in my town lately Everybody looks at the ground I've been distracted and dulled out, crazy But the sun never looked so pretty going down The sun never looked so pretty going down
Blue sky come find me, I'm waiting ah Sun never looked so pretty Sun never looked so pretty Sun never looked so pretty
Cloud and rain, smoke and smog here Won't see too many stars tonight Biding time, waitin' on a sunset One last glance of gold then goodbye
There's no blue sky in my town lately Everybody looks at the ground And where I am is making me hazy But the sun never looked so pretty going down
There's no blue sky in my town lately Everybody looks at the ground I've been distracted and dulled out, crazy But the sun never looked so pretty going down
Thorns, just keep walking away from it all I don't have a plan for calling you back ever at all Thorns, keep walking away from it all
'Cause I shouldn't have to tell you every time I see you You know I don't want you around And I shouldn't have to tell you every time I see you I'm getting sick of putting you down
Thorns, you keep sticking around in my side I just wanna know when you will go once you arrive Thorns, keep sticking around in my side
Keep hanging around and I'll keep walking away
'Cause I shouldn't have to tell you, every time I see you You know I don't want you around And I shouldn't have to tell you, every time I see you I'm getting sick of putting you down
Thorns, keep walking away from it all Thorns, keep walking away
Ain't no talking to, no getting rid of you Once you've got your foot in the door
Reach inside yourself Find what is left Things go wrong but you're still strong Time heals almost everything
And the world outside Doesn't need to let you in Lay your own stepping stones
Think it over might not be today You'll know what to do when it all turns around Think it over might not see the way Right in front of you but it all comes around
Back against the wall There are many ways to fall Take your time change your mind
Think it over might not be today You'll know what to do when it all turns around Think it over might not see the way Right in front of you but it all comes around
Take your time Change your mind take your time
Think it over might not be today You'll know what to do when it all turns around Think it over might not see the way Right in front of you but it all, yes it all comes around Comes around, comes around
Cold outside, but I don't blame the weather No one's calling, no one's at the door But I can't stay inside all day Blinds pulled to the floor
There's no blue sky in my town lately Everybody looks at the ground And where I am is making me hazy But the sun never looked so pretty going down
It ain't right, it feels like forever So many changes, I stopped keeping score But if you want me, you know where I will be I don't get out much anymore
Well there's no blue sky in my town lately Everybody looks at the ground I've been distracted and dulled out, crazy But the sun never looked so pretty going down The sun never looked so pretty going down
Blue sky come find me, I'm waiting ah Sun never looked so pretty Sun never looked so pretty Sun never looked so pretty
Cloud and rain, smoke and smog here Won't see too many stars tonight Biding time, waitin' on a sunset One last glance of gold then goodbye
There's no blue sky in my town lately Everybody looks at the ground And where I am is making me hazy But the sun never looked so pretty going down
There's no blue sky in my town lately Everybody looks at the ground I've been distracted and dulled out, crazy But the sun never looked so pretty going down
I'm not gonna lie to you Something is missing We don't have to make believe Nothing is gone We've had the time To see where we're going But we're a long way off From knowing why
[Chorus] I can't remember the last time You looked me in the eye I can't remember a way to Make you cry
I know it's been a long long time Since I listened And it's been a long long time Since we've been clear Many could live On what we have wasted All because we never knew How much we had
[Chorus]
Many could live On what we have wasted
[Chorus]
It's been a long long time It's been a long long time It's been a long long time
