Daydream Avenues
Daydream Avenues

(Verse 1)
I’ll protect you from all the things I’ve seen
I will douse your match in something serene
No more kerosene, no more kerosene
Maybe its alright to shatter one more night
For fateful nights your light took my sight
Blinded white, I’m blinded white
I asked for more, I asked too much
Your hidden rooms I couldn’t touch
Be my crutch, just be my crutch
(Chorus)
Daydream avenues we conceived
Fantasy decrees only fools believe
File this smile to shine on through
As we move on from all we knew
(Verse 2)
Alone again with all my fears
And honesty I hate to hear
Crystal clear, I’m crystal clear
Relive those nights I’ll never forget
Those sunshine dreams won’t ever fit
Losing it, I’m always losing it
Escape again to the hole I once dug
Stronger than oak, harder than drugs
Pulling the plug, I’m pulling the plug
Mirrored eyes these days I despise
Littered with ties to my daily lies
Breathing knives, I’m breathing knives
(chorus)
Daydream avenues we conceived
Fantasy decrees only fools believe
File this smile to shine on through
As we move on from all we knew
*listening to...*
