lyrics
He dreams of more than this
nothing is what it seems
He wants more
He wants yours
and when the moon is up
the day finally burnt through
He’ll lay awake scheming
plotting his way to you
I’m the one falling down
too clumsy to stand up
I’m the one falling behind
Invisible and unstable
Waiting to get mine
He hides out in plain sight
The idiot in the crowd
spitting and drooling
raving and ranting
but when the cards are down
and the jig is finally up
he’ll be far away
laughing and counting his money
I’m the one on top
too good to fall
I’m the one in front
indivisible and unbreakable
I finally got mine
nothing is what it seems
He wants more
He wants yours
and when the moon is up
the day finally burnt through
He’ll lay awake scheming
plotting his way to you
I’m the one falling down
too clumsy to stand up
I’m the one falling behind
Invisible and unstable
Waiting to get mine
He hides out in plain sight
The idiot in the crowd
spitting and drooling
raving and ranting
but when the cards are down
and the jig is finally up
he’ll be far away
laughing and counting his money
I’m the one on top
too good to fall
I’m the one in front
indivisible and unbreakable
I finally got mine
