Down the path of resistance
I find myself stumbling
Through my wants and my failures
Weaker than the thrill
Temptations attack our loyalty
Both the idea and institution
An equation of emotion
Too thick for calculating
But in the solution one and one are three
So when you see me pass me by
(Crossed my fingers) my fingers
Wish that you won't notice
Even red letter days still end with night
(In sleep we remain) in sleep we remain hopeful
Pay back to February
And heavy eyelids see plots unfold
To movie endings
Searching a bedroom ceiling
Finding subtleties, finding flaws
But never answers
For what you did or what you do!
I know the past still stings
But deafened ears waste apologies
So when you see me pass me by
(Crossed my fingers) my fingers
Wish that you won't notice
Even red letter days still end
With night (with night and dreams, to wake and find)
(How did he wake and find another?)
So go to sleep, turn off your ringer
Just close your eyes
Afraid of what is left to find out
Until the daylight drips in our eyes (daylight drips in our eyes)
In sleep, we'll remain hopeful
There is nothing left to say!
So when you see me pass me by
(Crossed my fingers) my fingers
Wish that you won't notice
Even red letter days still end
With night (with night and dreams to wake and find)
How did you wake and find another?
So go to sleep, turn off your ringer
Just close your eyes
Afraid of what is left to find out
Until the daylight drips in our eyes (daylight drips into our eyes)
In sleep, we'll remain hopeful
