Closing Scene

you could storm through a wasteland, believe what you want to believe

set your sails on a ship that could carry you over the sea

you could fold paper airplanes that fly to the edge of the world

close your eyes and imagine a beautiful girl

maybe i bet my future on the dreams i chased

but you traded your dreams for a safe safe place

and i don't feel free

and you don't feel safe

now the colors are flashing in a fever dream

and the tension in building for the closing scene

and i miss the way

that we used to be

there is no security

there are no mistakes

there is only destiny

there is only fate

you stayed home for weeks with your records alone in your room

so i said "let's go out cause it's springtime, the world is in bloom."

and we can go walking the backstreets we once knew so well

i can still hear the sound of the church tower bells

what if i bet my future on the dreams i chased

you traded your dreams for a safe safe place

you've got your fears

i've got my faith

now the colors are flashing on your tv screen

and your senses unravel in a fever dream

and i miss the way

that we used to be.

there is no security

there are no mistakes

there is only destiny

there is only fate

i know it's been a long hard year

i know your days are filled with doubt

but you missed out on all the joy when you were looking for the noise

to drown tomorrow out
