Traveling a world in one whole life

never one to call, you said you’d write to me

when we meet again in invisible places

you tell me that you run just to be free

faded for a world that’s in stars

never could be happy where you are

for too long

leaving a dream on a cloud of your makin'

playin' all your tricks of make believe

aw oh, aw oh

oh oh

aw oh, aw oh

oh oh

oh oh

livin' with a dragon in your head

(oh oh)

(aw, oh)

rollin' on your bed just to play dead

for drama!

(aw, oh)

fanning the flames that keep fantasy blazing

maps seat all dead endings to your seas (?)

remarkings of a world you’re waiting to leave,

the visions of a place that no one could see,

the whispers in your ears that won’t let you be,

the specters of the past keep calling.

you’re crying on a stage, the play doesn’t lead,

actin' out a scene that no one could see

playin' out a role that you don’t believe,

curtain drop on that balling.

what in the world, what did you do?

everybody’s here, they’re all looking at you

what in the world, what could I say?

reeling off the lines just to keep them away

silencing the seats as the moment decays

hummin' out the theme as you walkin' away

and we’re all goin' down, down, now.
