Famous First Words
Can feel it growing, It's about to burst, release me; now
When you wake up in the morning
It comes like a prayer
Realise something is missing, and going nowhere
Oh, it's true, yeah it's true
How you strode onto that platform
That transcendent high
Made its mark and the songs showed me, to the endless sky
Then I knew, oh I knew
But I know yeah, what you don't know
With this new feeling
I barely disguise
A longing to ignite
But it just always seems to just sound out insane
If I could just get up, and try my luck, again
When the lights begin to fade
And my time is now
Oh, I hope I feel like something of the world, somehow
Join the queue
I wanna take back what was stolen
Wanna raise the dead
I wanna play to every city
Not just to my head
What a view
Cause, we can hear, what you can't hear
The songs in our heads, that we can't deny
Our life lines
And they just always, seem to just drown out the pain
And they'll make us get up, and try our luck
Again, again, again, again
They say you miss too much, if you stop to dream
Well, are they as distant as they seem
And my world as I know
Will never be the same
Now I know that I can't stop, 'til it knows my name
My name, my name, what's my name?
My name
I don't know
Where this thing started, Oh how?
But I'll chase down, Before it leaves
Departs now
When the air is thick with doubt, and I despair
But every single big idea has to start somewhere
I used to think the future, would never come
So many lives that could be led, why do we only get one?
Where are you?
What do you want?
Anything?
Everything?
Yeah, how about you?
