There's a sign on the wall greedy ivy has owned
Arrow points to the sky among the green of the mound
Night arrives with her rhymes sitting on starfish steed
In their rush they pardon setting Suns' homeless plea
There's this feeling I get when they start their gig
Captain Dream plays the theme on his harp back the rig
Sign reveals secret scenery when followed through
I look up
We're eight miles from the blue

There's a dream man will dream only once in his life
If he let himself wake, he'll never get it back
Dream bubbles burst to assuage memories full of blue
It's alright
I am waiting for you

And it feels so familiar
When skies are crying out their blues
There's no cause but really does it need one?
When all's said and everything is done

Well, it feels so immutable
Though all say things will be so fine pal, now I'm close to fall
Let them down
I will let them down and down again

It's so unoriginal
When all our little worlds collide
And we wave our ribbons just in front of others' eyes
But never have we let them tie them

Even the Moon is so fictional
When he blurs all blue into the dark, he tears the skies apart
But he cries,
God he cries with the stars

And if I were a better man
Would I've covered gently (covered gently)
All the empty spaces
Torn between the friends?

And if I were a better man
Would I've rescued ridges (rescued ridges)
Of the foundering bridges
From oblivion?

And if I were a better man
Would I have somebody? (have somebody)
Would I have somebody
To talk more often to?

And if I were a better man
Would you tell her, Sandman?
Would you tell her, Sandman
All I said to you?
