You've counted every star
|
That you could imagine
|
Broken when everyone took you for a fool
|
It gave you a reason
|
To find something strong enough to feel
|
|
You're reaching out (reaching out)
|
You're reaching out (reaching out)
|
You're reaching out
|
|
Beaten by a child
|
You can't even know when
|
Now you can never be free from what was done
|
You can't even hate them
|
You'll find something big enough to steal
|
You're reaching out (reaching out)
|
You're reaching out (reaching out)
|
You're reaching out
|
|
And if I can't know you
|
All my dreams are through
|
Every waking hour is filled with lead
|
I'm dead
|
|
|
I've counted every star
|
That you could imagine
|
Broken when everyone took me for a fool
|
It gave me a reason
|
To find something strong enough to feel
|
|
You're reaching out (reaching out)
|
You're reaching out (reaching out)
|
You're reaching out
|
|
And if I can't know you
|
All my dreams are through
|
Every waking hour is filled with lead
|
I'm dead
|
|
I'm dead
|
