lyrics

Flying through the chilly air, unaware of falling.
I remember getting there, I don't remember crawling.

I.

I think I'll have a little too much wine.
Anything to pass the time.
The world dissolves like a dandelion.
We all wake up on someone else's mind.
I never saw the line, but everything, everything.
Wouldn't it be nice to get a second try?
Everything's alright.


II.

It's such a lovely night.
Just like a mystery book.
It always ends too soon.
And we regret our haste.
Not tonight, I promise.
Did you hear something crashing?


III.

Johnny broke his ankle on a scooter ride.
The neighbors heard the racket and they ran out to look.
There was blood on his face, gravel in the wound.
He slept like a baby and he didn't want to wake.
“Baby are you hurt? Baby are you lost?”
He screams and he cries, “I'm so unhappy.”
