lyrics

And I'm trying to keep my dream life separate from the days as they go by,
and it's getting harder to stay awake,
and I'm trying to keep your head in places you don't understand,
and we're getting colder in the city.

And all your friends are getting older,
and getting involved in other things,
you've just become this useless machine,
you don't need them anyway.

We've been announced as the select guest hosts to the music show,
as we watch the stars go by from the city below.
We've been announced as approaching the King with news from the music scene,
he's been impeached for being irrelevant again.

The world will watch on TV!
The world will watch on TV,
as the stars become scars,
and the scars become cars,
driving uselessly on the highway of blue dimensions for spare change.
And the city becomes irrelevant.
The sky becomes irrelevant.

And you can never wake up when the city is falling on your face.
And you can never wake up when the sky is falling on your face.
And you can never wake up when the sky is falling on your face.
