Do you remember anyone here?

No you don't remember anything at all

I'm sleeping, I'm flat on my back

Never woke up, had no regrets

There's a party in my mind...And it never stops

There's a party up there all the time...They'll

party till they drop

Other people can go home...Other peoplle they can split

I'll be here all the time...I can never quit

Take a walk through the land of shadows

Take a walk through the peaceful meadows

Try not to look so disappointed

It isn't what you hoped for, is it?

There's a party in my mind...And I hope it never stops

I'm stuck here in this seat...I might not stand up

Other people can go home...Everyone else will split

I'll be here all the time...I can never quit

Everything is very quiet

Everyone has gone to sleep

I'm wide awake on memories

There memories can't wait.

Air...Air

Hit me in the face

I run faster

Faster into the air

(I say to myself)

What is happening to my skin?

Where is that protection that I needed?

Air can hurt you too

Air can hurt you too

Some people say not to worry about the air

Some people never had experience with...

Air...Air

It can break your heart

So remember when the weather gets rough

(You'll say to yourself)

What is happening to my skin?

Where is that protection that I needed?

Air can hurt you too

Air can hurt you too

Some people say not to worry about the air

Some people don't know shit about the...

Air...
