And I will send this angel through you Won't you tell me that you'll catch him on the other side? (Hey hey) And when I send that call out for you Come a-runnin' to the head another heart to guide (Hey hey) To the Other Side... Take me to that place now Where I'm in your space now For which the rest I'm held to write (Hey hey) An appointed quest; vow Our fall from Grace; how? Can I make you see I hold my breath here on this straight To the Other Side (Hey hey) Hone the tune with a little bit of sex To own the muse "Oh, show me what's next. That day..." When I'm awakened by you Where the mass will hear this pop market sound With a build to inner profounds And I'll watch you sing along While dancin' through the rain in the street "Bittersweet symphony baby When I close my eyes you come and you take me On and on and on It's always there in my daydreams Oh, it's such a bittersweet symphony On and on and on..." To the Other Side (Hey Hey) Take me to that place now Where I'm in your space now For which the rest I'm held to shape and write, write, write An appointed quest; vow Now ascend to Grace How can I make you see I hold my breath here on the straight?

Hide until you break then take another chance on me You will see Just what love could be Hide until you break then take another chance on me This could be The love you’ve always dreamt you would see Hide behind the wall then fall when there is no one to see Baby please If there’s no one you can count on then you know there’s always gonna be me Hide behind the wall then fall when there is no one to see Baby freeze I’ll let the fire burn and slowly make your body say please This is me tonight I’m genuine Forgiving my disguise Opening the valves to let you feel inside These velvet veins of mine Once hollowed out and dried She says, ” Yeah, there’s this warmth I can feel as he flows within my mind” Infinite words for letters to be sent to you Through the waves of sound I’m sending something new Molecules combust I know you feel it too Cosmic rays that breathe these gentle shades of… I know that I’d be good for you.

Sleeping with the phone pressed up against your lips Just to control it we need this morphine drip But deep inside the drip you will find our lost intentions Begging to break this silence we’ve been trying so desperately to grip Check this out Believe in me now As you sleep and no one is around It craves our imperfection and debility of mind, yeah Believe in me now How can I move on? This ghost of Apollo lives still haunting me Dreaming has left me but a fraction of a nights worth of sleep At four or five when I arise I grab a pen, take a seat So deep inside our heads where I have planned to pick apart Hoping to find the resolution hiding here, this hollowness of ours Ha! C’mon… Believe in me now As you sleep and no one is around It craves our imperfection and debility of mind, yeah Believe in me now How can I move on? This ghost of Apollo lives still haunting me I’m a liar, yeah. A goddamn good one when it comes to this I’m a hider, yeah I’ll do what it takes I will resist I'm a liar, yeah I'm goddamn good when it comes to this.

So let’s gaze outside with tarnished green and hazel eyes Passed these big glass sheets that they call windows Just think four weeks before the leaves cascaded in the trees And now their death paints colors on the floor Nothing but the stars come out at night to remind me of that day And all the light which slipped away Nothing's ever been so dark before, C’mon give me just one more Tell me what’s the price I’ll have to pay As the Sun goes down it reflects shades of bloody red from cloud to cloud Burning down my building to the ground Search for me I’ll be under the ashes and debris I’m counting sheep by sheep This thing called Fear always predicts where I’ll be Every passing minute Another chance Turn it around I’ll be here painting our Vanilla Sky Every passing minute is another chance Turn it around In these dreams I know one day that you’ll find And all the light returned my way.
