second chances
I took all your second chances and gave them to the poor
To the undeserving so they could live again
I reached into the sky and took brightness from the stars
And put a sparkle back in your eye
I’ve noticed it rains more year by year
The sky doesn’t look so beautiful today
And neither do you baby,
Neither do you
I changed the world and made you a paradise
Why then do they call it hell?
I am that flawed a maker
I am that desperately in love
Who’s dreamed the same dream of a perfect world
And who defines the same terms of perfection?
I never judged the stars
I only stole from heaven until they were ours
I don’t think I can change
I don’t think I’d want to
Will you save us baby?
Will you pull the plug on me?
Sleep comes to the weariest of souls
The stars are still there we just can’t see behind the storm
In the final day every tear will be wiped away
So cry harder baby, while we still have tears to shed
Cry for us both, baby
it’s too late for me, I’m already dead
