Quitting Your Daydreams

I'll take your punches
I'll take on your faults
While you roam around in search of what's wrong with the
World and it's people who are living at large
I'll sever what's mine in the unselfish act of my
Life and my time, Oh righteous me

You'd never look at me
The same way again

I'm out selling roses
On a Sunday afternoon
I'm thinkin about things that give me a new found res-
Pect for the blues and the comforts we seek
When we cease to amaze me my knees will go week and I'll
Fall on my face and breath into the ground

Would you ever look at me
The same way again

Cause I have a place in mind
Where we could spend the rest of our time
Go West, young man, Go West
It's where it all began.

In Our Arms

You are so stealing my thunder
You're giving us all away
And we don't know how much more we can drink

You are known in a couple of very small circles
For building an anime scene
In the tree above the bulldog

Maybe my hands are on the wheel
Maybe your dreams are more real
Maybe your dreams are more real

We will carry you, then we'll throw you aside
In our arms remains the weight of what you left behind

You were so stealing my thunder.

Italian Nights

I am dreamin of a foreign land
Through these streets that should be buried
I'm thinkin of another woman's man
When I cry
The first tears of summer
Time slows down

There are no tears in my holiday
I drink the night while I can
I grab me a piece of land for an hour or two
And I think of you
And the same moon
That I can't find

Have you ever been lonely?

Well the old men around here they stay up real late
They're tryin to change the rules to everything
Their great debate holds social and political weight

They're never lonely

Here they are again, they're in this together
And everything they say is gonna matter to them
They're never lonely
They'll never be alone
