Drifty

Traveling a world in one whole life
Never one to call, you said you'd write to me
When we meet again in invisible places
You tell me that you run just to be free
Faded for a world that's in stars
Never could be happy where you are
For too long
Leaving a dream on a cloud of your makin'
Playin' all your tricks of make believe
Aw oh, aw oh
Oh oh
Aw oh, aw oh
Oh oh
Oh oh
Livin' with a dragon in your head
(Oh oh)
(Aw, oh)
Rollin' on your bed just to play dead
For drama!
(Aw, oh)
Fanning the flames that keep fantasy blazing
Maps seat all dead endings to your seas
Remarkings of a world you're waiting to leave
The visions of a place that no one could see
The whispers in your ears that won't let you be
The specters of the past keep calling
You're crying on a stage, the play doesn't lead
Actin' out a scene that no one could see
Playin' out a role that you don't believe
Curtain drop on that balling
What in the world, what did you do?
Everybody's here, they're all looking at you
What in the world, what could I say?
Reeling off the lines just to keep them away
Silencing the seats as the moment decays
Hummin' out the theme as you walkin' away
And we're all goin' down, down, now
