lyrics

looking back at my whole life
standing still while the cars pass by
what did I do wrong
what did I do right

looking up past the clouds tonight
up at the same old stars
somehow a different sky
everyone is gone
didn't say goodbye

wake me up cause I must be dreaming you know that I could see the good in anyone
like some old movie I'm out here screaming
help me
cause I have never been so undone

I drove to the sea
I tried the whole way there to find some memory of anybody out there
and I tried you know, I swear I did
but the waves they don't part for dreams like yours or mine, kid
and I look in the mirror
I don't know who I see
the girl that I once was
she ain't looking back at me
and if she's given up
well I don't want to know
cause you can't always get what you want
and that's just how it goes

wake me up cause I must be dreaming you know that I could see the good in anyone
like some old movie I'm out here screaming
help me
cause I have never been so undone

the world is a fine place
and worth fighting for
I agree with the second part
when a person is insane
as you clearly are
do you know that you're insane?
maybe you're just sitting around, reading Guns and Ammo
masturbating in your own feces
do you just stop and go
wow. it's amazing how fucking crazy I really am

wake me up cause I must be dreaming you know that I could see the good in anyone
like some old movie I'm out here screaming
help me
cause I have never been so undone
