[Verse 1]
Crime in the currency
Fire down a bendin' wall
Or would you care to be
In all the gamblin' that got started
No one is better off
Hope is a candle lit night
No one is meant to be
On anything afloat
[Chorus]
We just lie awake in a stolen thought
We lie awake and imagine what we are
We hide and wait for some golden star
And hope the dirt is wearin' off
[Verse 2]
Fall like a domino
Lob up another mistake
All of it's killing me
Let's find a bitter end and restart it
Love isn't what you want
Hold if you can't believe
Facin' a loaded gun
In time to take a look at
What's causin' all the fuss
We mustn't buckle all at once
[Chorus]
We just lie awake in a stolen thought
We lie awake and imagine what we are
We hide and wait for some golden star
And hope the dirt is wearin' off
We just lie awake in a stolen thought
We lie awake and imagine what we are
We hide and wait for some golden star
And hope the dirt is wearin' off
[Bridge]
I just can't hold it together
I just can't hold it together
I just can't hold it together
I just can't hold it together
I just can't
I just can't hold it together
I just can't
I just can't hold it together
[Chorus]
We just lie awake in a stolen thought
We lie awake and imagine what we are
We hide and wait for some golden star
And hope the dirt is wearin' off
[Outro]
The devil is not the nature that is around us
But the nature that is within us all
