ROCK
Dreams I had
Floating on an endless sea
Of wasted opportunity
I just watched them drown
Day by day
Slaving in the same routine
All chewed up by this machine
I just want out
But you give me strength
Strength to carry on
I'm so lucky I've got
Someone like you to lean on
Tearing strips
‘Til there's nothing left of me
Sparks ignite the effigy
Now watch it burn
Let me down
Like a buy one get one free
Suck the life right out of me
And I've only got myself to blame
But you give me strength
Strength to carry on
I'm so lucky I've got
Someone like you to lean on
So hold me close
Don't let me go
Cos it's at times like these
That I need you most
Dreams I had
Floating on an endless sea
Of wasted opportunity
I just watched them drown
