Dreaming
I was only dreaming
Of another place and time
Where's my family is from
Singing
I can hear them singing
When the rain had washed away
All these scattered dreams
Dying
Everyone's reminded
Hearts are washed in misery
Drenched in gasoline
Laughter
There's no more laughter
Songs of yesterday
Now live in the underground
beat switch from slow to fast
C--F#-G# x6
Life before the lobotomy
Christian sang the eulo--gy
Sign my love a lost memory
From the end of the century
Well It's e--nough to make you sick
To cast a stone and throw a brick
And when the sky is falling down
It burned your dreams into the ground
Christian's lesson is what he's been sold
We are normal and selfcontrolled
Remember to learn to forget
Whiskey shots and cheap cigarettes
Well i'm not stoned
I'm just fucked up
I got so high I can't stand up
I'm not cursed Cause i've been blessed
FC# G# F# C# G#--
I'm not in love Cause i'm a mess
Like refugees
We're lost to refugees
Like refugees
We're lost to refugees
The brutality of reality
(Guitar solo)
Is the freedom that keeps me from
