lyrics

Kicking about in a dusty dream
On a top shelf
No one can reach
Just out of reach enough
To keep you there forever

All for a profit that we’ll never see
All for a profit that we’ll never see
But I’ve heard happy accidents happen all the time
Just not to us
The stroke of luck
Must have been lost
Or washed down the drain again

If you’re looking for the signs, you’ll see them
So be careful what you ask from them
You don’t want to wake up in somebody else’s life

(Before)
Shy away from big decisions
Some people take against you for no reason
And there’s no meaning in suffering, in suffering, in suffering
The answers are just out of reach
But close enough to keep you hanging there
Forever

Humble is the man who knows this
Happy is the heart that throws it all out of the window
And says no no no
I’m not going to let it go to waste

Washed down the drain again
It won’t come this way again
Hanging waiting for a miracle
But no one’s ever coming because you never called
You never called
