lyrics

All the opium dens in China won't save me from myself
and if you want to make a clean escape well there's only one way out.

I had a dream last night that we all were free and I had a dream that I would never die
But all the dreams that I could ever dream will never bring you back to life.

I rode in a car towards Stoneham and pretended it was home where we could sleep and forget this life that I've fucked up.
Needless to say I didn't get any sleep at all but I still stayed up all night thinking of all the things we could have been dreaming of.

And I was so drunk that night I first danced with you but somehow I made it the whole night through.
And now you're back wherever it was that you were from and wherever that is I hope things are better for you than they were for you when I knew you.
