Lyrics

Stories are told about yesterday’s news
Victimless crimes pretend to see it all through
oh, I’ve been waiting for you
oh, I’ve been waiting for you

What about the truth you’ve been seeking
What about the reasons you hide
Are these illusions of grandeur
Falling apart at the seams

Won’t be anything but stronger
Don’t mean anything to you
On a cloud you ride it for longer

Hold me now I’ll be stronger somehow
I won’t be a weed amongst the grass
Hold me now I’ll be stronger somehow
I won’t be a weed amongst the grass
Here in my mind I lead a different life for me
Quit blowing smoke for I can no longer see
oh, In these visions I’m right on the mark
oh, In the real I’ve barely made a spark

False hopes disappointing
Great dreams so annoying
