lyrics

Tell him if he blinks he'll still see the Sun
Tell him there's a hell and there's a heaven
Now he knows his dreams are just playthings
Nothing to ponder on or dwell in
Wish he couldn't see
Really it's a lie
So he'll think everything gonna be alright
Tell him that you don't know either
Tell him that you'll make it up together
Tell him that one day he will reach the sky
Looking at it's best just before the Sun dies
Clouds still bruising full of water
Knowing what is coming straight after
Tell him he can handle everything in sight
Doesn't need to split down the middle inside
Dreaming's only better without meaning
Here they come again still creeping

There's neon spiders on my wall
Drunk is the Sun
And the moon's so cruel

Though I run I won't make it
Close my eyes I can't face it
Waking up in bad places
Hoping I'm hallucinating

Tell him he can breathe
He can breathe now
Ghosts still screaming silently now
He can drink all night in the gallery
Until he feel divine at his mastery
Tell him son
Do not be afraid
Shake your head
Come back from the masquerade
Watch his eyes turn red as he enter night
Flying up high on his wings on light
Watch his fists bleed as he hits the sky
Blood on the clouds of another sunrise
Beating to the sounds of laughter
More and more crowds
Yeah, they gather
Crying so hard in the face of gods
How many glass ceilings have you got
Now he knows his dreams are just playthings
Nothing to ponder on or dwell in

There's neon spiders crawling now
Drunk is the son
And the moon's so cold

Though I run I won't make it
Close my eyes I can't face it
Waking up in bad places
Hoping I'm hallucinating

You say the stars won't shine for you
Stars hear me
Help her please
I've seen the skies all set alight
Chinese lanterns
Help her please
I know they're golden eyes
Looking down
Help her please
And all those beautiful nights
Under the moonlight
We were above it all
We were above it all

Though I run I won't make it
Close my eyes I can't face it
Waking up in bad places
Hoping I'm hallucinating
