Tonight I have no words for you Made a promise to say so much Oh I can only steal from you What already belongs to us I would like to sing a firestorm And not some rich and soothing well Well all such lines are forbidden now And it's you I cannot touch Well you know that it ain't true I don't care 'bout me and you See the sky is so deep And I dare not go to sleep I would like to come unmasked for you I wanna come without a lie It was this voice and pen I used To make myself a man Now if you could try and reach inside And tear apart this sad cocoon Oh I will again be that moon for you And we too will be like sand Well you know that it ain't true I don't care 'bout me and you See the sky is so deep And I dare not, dare not, well go to sleep you know You know it just might change You don't wear these checkers and chains You know it won't come on You know the government's coming along You know it just might change You don't wear these checkers and chains, checkers and chains Well alright Now I ain't being cold You know it's only that just now Seems obvious the hands that fell Are the hands that will soon knock down Well tonight I see the skyline As the skyline lights a mountain range Tomorrow night it just might have changed The other way around Well you know that it ain't true I don't care 'bout me and you See the sky is so deep And I dare not, dare not, well go to sleep you know You know it just might change You don't wear these checkers and chains You know it won't come on You know the government's coming along
