Evening games, hide and seek As darkness grows the fun begins We're kings and queens, heroes, foes Till our moms call us home In dying lights of window panes You extinguished hope like a cigarette You reached for stars You grabbed them all And you crashed them down On the floor
On the sharp edge of frustration Watching my dreams on TV If you touch me - I may disappear When I look back in the mirror See no child, no magic thrill Only sad eyes, wasted time to kill
Hope - evidence of sorrow Hope - magic in your eyes without shine Only dreams to follow Hope - letters in the sand I'm the pirate with no treasure I'm the keeper without keys I'm the sad king of obscurity Just one click from seventh heaven Bigger dreams make bigger lies I'm a hostage of subscribed desires
Hope - evidence of sorrow Hope - magic in your eyes without shine Only dreams to follow Hope - letters in the sand
I don't mind you follow Your dream - your sorrow Makes you crawl for more Makes your life fantastic Am I sarcastic? One for tomorrow And one for today Dreams - shattered memories Of my evening games I have to play
As darkness grows, and flocks of stars Appear to give us guiding light There's one for you and one for me And we believe we are free
As tired breath of city Sings us lullaby and we believe We'll never change, so strong we'll be We close our eyes and fall asleep
