lyrics
A party line turns to stragglers
Looking for reverie
In the new year air, that burns when it reaches you
And starts the new sadness
That holds you in place
Eyes locked on the passing cars
Now blurring from your vision
Go to sleep.
A broken window to a new blame
That settles beside us in our bed
The room is cold, a ghost that stays
Years become wasted time.
back to sleep
Dreaming away
We’ll look for more sunny days
The choices fade
We’ll look for new ways to lie to ourselves
Sleep it all away
We’ll look for new ways to blame ourselves
Dreaming away
Aware now its all a waste...
Looking for reverie
In the new year air, that burns when it reaches you
And starts the new sadness
That holds you in place
Eyes locked on the passing cars
Now blurring from your vision
Go to sleep.
A broken window to a new blame
That settles beside us in our bed
The room is cold, a ghost that stays
Years become wasted time.
back to sleep
Dreaming away
We’ll look for more sunny days
The choices fade
We’ll look for new ways to lie to ourselves
Sleep it all away
We’ll look for new ways to blame ourselves
Dreaming away
Aware now its all a waste...
