I'm watching landscapes under moonlight Cos I'm so tired of dark days I can't sleep at night or bear the sight again I never fail to wake up memories That should be dreaming They tip the scales the wrong way every time I just feel like crying out
Why was it ever so Why When you're reaching out for reason Caught by the nails Caught by the nails Torn right through your sails Why can reality lie When you feel like you're ascending Caught by the nails Caught by the nails Falling through the rails
I never mean to end up choosing The door to more But this machine has got me losing The cards I never had I thought I'd cracked the code And opened a safe surrounding But life attacked from all sides far too well It's straight back to hell again
The luck never flows it comes and it goes But god only knows why it never comes in I'm trying to see who else I could be But maybe it's me that's forgotten to win With eyes on the prize I told myself lies And now I despise what I've almost become Uncertainty taints the patience of saints And with these constraints I find myself with none
So take away the dreams of freedom I won't be needing Before you say goodbye and close the door Just stop and question
