Now everybody's looking after me
If I'm dragging by some coat tail, I can't see; it's too dark
But I've got to know what's got the best of me
When the circus that you left goes on parade
In those bleacher seats so far in your charade, it's too far
But I'm feeling like I don't dare look away
Don't look away
Did it almost make you feel, that something's gonna happen soon?
When you wake up feeling lost in your own room
If you're crying in your beer, you're gonna drown
If you think we'll rise above, you better look around, you'll see
It's a mountain made of sand comin' under me
Maybe I'm chasing shadows on your wall
They loom so large, but make me feel so small so hard
When you're chasing your own tail spinning your own wheels
On a night when the wolves were all silent (tried everything, tried looking away)
And the moon howled (I tried to leave, I tried to stay, tried everything, tried looking away)
Did it almost make you feel, that something's gonna happen soon?
You're in the movies now and I'm in your cartoon
There's a ringing in my ear that's heaven-sent
There's a beast out on the ruins, some broken down lover's lament
It goes on and on but it won't go away
