[Verse 1] Across the city steam and light Off a runway to the manufactured night In storybooks youll never find In paper armor that youd mind Theyll hold the match to you this time And watch the smoke rings fit the crime [Verse 2] In moments you cannot reprise Like a soldier or a watch that you cant wind We fought the world with hands twicetied The people cheered, the captain cried Ill keep the souvenir inside Its just better in my mind [Chorus] And I wouldnt lie I never really wanted more Than what I ever really needed after all Someone that hates to see me go [Verse 3] You made a promise then you hide And you said wed all be dead by twentyfive Its not your disappointed sigh Its not you traded this for pride Not that we really even mind Were just bored youre still alive [Bridge] And I wouldnt lie If I tried, take me down And if I die here now [Outro] Wishing wells and magic spells and everything between Can you tell me what its like? Or how its going to be?
