by Abandon Kansas

Album: Alligator

Verse 1
Stepping in and out of darkness
Heard it said every preacher's kid is like this
I was born with this feeling inside my guts
Already blew it, already messed this up

Life's a comedy for those who think
And a tragedy for those who feel
But if no one's there to share it with
Are you laughing for real?

Chorus
Cold are the lonely ones
Who sink at the sight of the sun
And we find our place
With the shadows we chase
They grow dark the further we run, whoa

Verse 2
I find it easier to stay in
Than try and fail to be a has-been
Licking my wounds on the couch is enough
Just assume that someone will pick me up

And my 20s were wild and free
It doesn't mean that they were cheap
Push the limit 'til the limit pushes back
Build a home right here on the edge of that

Chorus
Cold are the lonely ones
Who sink at the sight of the sun
And we find our place
With the shadows we chase
We grow dark the farther we run, whoa

Bridge
I've been dreamin'
I've been dreamin' long enough

I've been dreamin' long enough
I've been dreamin' long enough
I've been dreamin' long enough
I've been dreamin' long enough

I've been dreamin' long enough
I've been dreamin' long enough
I've been dreamin' long enough
I'm ready to wake up
