How hard is it for me to wait for you, my love See you in the next one have a good time Could be a lifetime before I see you again, my love See you in the next one have a good time
Eyes they open wide Eyes they open wide I like the way it was Hate the way it is now
Lack of time and a wasted weekend You wore your lies like a film star
Eyes they open wide Eyes they open wide I like the way it was Hate the way it is now
Hello it's me, it's me Calling out I can see you Hello it's me, crying out, crying out Are you there?
Hello it's me, it's me I want to touch you It's me throwing stones from the stars On your mixed up world
Been circling round for 20 years And in that time I've seen all the fires and all the liars I've been calling home for 20 years And in that time I heard the screams rebound to me While, you were making history
I could see the fire And I'll throw the fire back down
So take your time I wonder if you're here just to use my mind Don't take it slow You know I've got a place to go You always do that Something I'm not sure of But just for today Let go and slide away
*I was thinking maybe we could go outside Let the night sky cool your foolish pride Don't you feel alive These are your times and our highs
So take your time I wonder which cup you'll drink from I hope it's mine Beause you always do that something Something I'm not sure of But just for today Let go and burn away
'Cause I read your mind I need it because it takes me where I can't find Because you always do that something Something I'm not sure of But just for today Let go and burn away
* repeat
Slide Away burn away Slide Away burn away I read your mind I read your mind 'Cause it takes me to where I can't find...
Save your books and your pills I don't need them I'm there
You can do anything you want to All you've got to do is try
I thought my best days had left me My best years had left me behind
Then I felt them come back (to me) And all the wild eyes All the wild eyes know what I mean
If trees cut stars and eyes to heaven I'll bend them back and bend them again If my skin looks tired and old from living I'll turn right back and live it again You better pray when the music stops And you're left alone in your mind 'Cause I'll be hearing music till the day I die
Then I heard it turn off I swear I heard the screams And all the wild eyes All the wild eyes know what I mean They're scared they've lost their dream They press down on me You know I thought I was there
Hello, high, are you? Yes? Well that explains it Oh you were walking round like some kind of angel You were walking round like some kind of angel Hello, high, are you? Yes? Well that explains it Well that explains it
