Song Lyrics

Wake up from the voice in my head
I'm terrified from all the things that it said
Hang glide from the most vivid dream
The reality's not what I want it to be

I shut down when I need to stand up
Crashing out when I'm supposed to wake up
Let's come down like we're coming of age
An inside joke that doesn't quite play

I want to float away into yesterday

I've got to step up
Can't you see I'm hanging by a thread
As I creep up, I'll float out
I have to find some peace in my head

I speak up, you say the time has come
Waiting for the answer on the tip of my tongue
So what, I'm just half at ease
Cynical screaming and laughing at me

I want to float away into yesterday

I've got to step up
Can't you see I'm hanging by a thread
As I creep up, I'll float out
I have to find some peace in my head

Reeling on the ceiling

I've got to step up
Can't you see I'm hanging by a thread
As I creep up, I'll float out
I have to find some peace in my head

Don Gilmore, Michael Raphael
