Wasteland




Flock of Seagulls - I Ran.


Wasteland
I always seem to mess up
But I feel like I can make it right
I always seem to make someone cry
And keep up others in the night

I can never make it end
I always fall away
Into a wasteland in my head
So I ran
And I ran
Stars shine down upon me
But I couldn't get away
I can't get away

There is always time to change
But you were always fading from view
So I just ran so far away
I ran all night and day
But I just couldn't get away

Show me what you've got
We all walk with dirty feet
And while the good die young
The broken die old
So stay with me tonight
Tell me what you are
For I am getting cold

Trust me
We will see each other tonight
We will hold each other tight
We will be alright
We will be alright

Things are not always as they seem to be
But they can't take you away from me
No one knows the secrets we are hiding
For I can't leave the hands that guide me

From here your eyes look starry
As you suddenly let go of me
As you suddenly turned on me
But things are not always as they seem to be
They can't take you away from me
They simply take you away from me

I can take slaving hands
But I not my feet
I don't have the heart
No soul left to keep
Stuck left following this road
We call dreams
Running away until we realize we were again
Blinded by the gleam
Time rests in shadows
Waiting on its mark
Biding enough time
To play footsies in the dark

So hold my hand
I have a master plan
I am in your command
I am in your demand
Time me while you blink away
Time me while we head down our dream
I'm right here waiting
Right here
Home asleep

You are a dreamer
But don't dim your eyes yet please
It's a touch of grace
That stares us sleepily
Now awake my girl
And stop your weeping

It's time to watch the stars go by
I'll follow you through the darkest laid back eyes
That neither of us can see through
Time to get it right
We will make it through
I'll get to you
I'll will hold you

My feet may ache
But I now know what from me
They can't take
I can't get away from you
And I never want them to

Those bright eyes will slowly guide me back
I am a guilty man that rest beside you
These soft hands tightly hold me back
Wrapped up with muddy tracks
From experiences that never alone
I can pull through

And as you grasp me back the second time
Stay with me tonight
It is when I know for sure
That I will fall back into line
You will bring me back home
Back into place
Back into view
Back to you
Back to our time

Let me know what you guys think. I have a good feeling about this one.
