[Verse 1]
Stop the night, night
My thoughts get louder after dark
Ooh, the lies
The crazies tell me this much, ahah
It's a simple enough task, boys
To find a living miracle
But the living ain't easy
I need a shot of medicine
[Verse 2]
Start the day, day
My head denies I'm breathing
It likes to say
"Am I here or leaving me?"
There's a want that I ask all the Time
Possession of my right mind
You're not deaf
But I still have to shout
Watch out, there's lots of thieves about
[Chorus]
Along, along the way
I stand beside myself
And look at all my world
No need to tell me
[Post-Chorus]
I see dead men playing
I hear cries from many
I see tears and then some
I hear hope, I'm hoping
[Verse 3]
Faraway (way)
I hear a memory calling me
I'd like to stay
But my obsession wants to play
I'm caught with all
The shutters down
Who's looking through my window?
I had to close the saddest eyes
[Chorus]
Along, along the way
I stand beside myself
And look at all my world
No need to tell me
[Post-Chorus]
I see dead men playing
I hear cries from many
I see tears and then some
I hear hope, I'm hoping
[Outro]
(You've got to be a winner) I see me inside you
(You've got to be cool) I hear fear and then some
(You've got to be a winner) I see children playing
(You've got to be cool) I see hope, I'm hoping
I see dead men playing
I hear cries from many
I see tears and then some
I hear hope, I'm hoping
