Now everybody's looking after me
If I'm dragging by some coat tail
I can't see it's too dark
But i've got to know what's got the best of me
When the circus that you left goes on parade
And those things you see seem so far in your charade
Too far
But I'm feeling like I don't dare look away
Don't look away
Did it almost make you feel
That something's got to happen soon
When you wake up feeling lost in your own room
If you're crying and you fear you're gonna drown
If you think we'll rise above
You'd better look around
You'll see
It's a mountain made of sand crumbling under me
Maybe I'm chasing shadows on your wall
They loom so large
But make me feel so small so hard
When you're chasing your own tail in your own room

And a time to leave
And a time to stay
I guess the things I look away
Did it almost make you feel that somethings gotta happen soon
You're in the movies now and I'm in your cartoon
There's a ringing in my ears that's heaven sent
There's a beast out on the ruins
Some broken down lover's lament
It goes on and on but it won't go away
