Lucid Dreams

You are right, I'll move on But my lungs feel so small I couldn't breathe if I tried I lay my head on the floor My beating heart wanting more But I'll keep it in and keep you out I'm drowning, I'm drowning I'm drowning, I'm drowning But for the longest time I knew There was nothing left for us to do But I tried, oh, I tried And in this quiet company There is nothing staring back at me I'm in need of the sound Hungry for the kill, but this hunger, it isn't you Voices disappear when you are speaking, in somber tunes I will be the wolf and when you're starving, you'll need it too Hungry for the kill, but this hunger, it isn't you It isn't you, it isn't And I'll go talk to fill the void, Let me go cause you are just a shade Of what I am, not what I'll be But in this quiet company I forget sometimes just how to breathe Fill my lungs with the sound Hungry for the kill, but this hunger, it isn't you Voices disappear when you are speaking, in somber tunes I will be the wolf and when you're starving, you'll need it too Hungry for the kill, but this hunger, it isn't you It isn't you, it isn't I'm drowning, I'm drowning

My cheeks were reflecting the longest wavelength My fan was folded up and grazing my forehead And I kept touching my neck To guide your eye to where I wanted you to kiss me when we find some time alone. My scars were reflecting the mist in your headlights I looked like a neon zebra shaking rain off her stripes And the rivulets had you riveted to the places that I wanted you to kiss me when we find some time alone And then we can do anything we want We started out sipping the water And now we try to swallow the wave And we try not to let those bastards get us down We don't worry anymore cause we know when the guff comes we get brave After all, look around It's happening, it's happening, it's happening now Let's pretend we're eight years old playing hookey I'll draw on the wall and you can play UFC rookie Then we'll grow up Take our clothes off And you remind me that I wanted you to kiss me when we find some time alone And then we can do anything we want
