Suffering from something we're not sure of
In a world there is no cure for
These lives we live test negative for happiness
Flat line, no pulse, but eyes open
Single file like soldiers on a mission
If there's no war outside our heads
Why are we losing?I don't ask for much
Truth be told I'd settle
For a life less frightening, a life less frighteningI don't ask for much
Truth be told I'd settle
For a life less frightening, a life less frighteningHang me out to dry I'm soaking
With the sense of knowing
What's gone wrong but doing nothing I still run
Time again I have found myself stuttering
Foundations pulled out from under me
This breath is wasted on them all
Will someone answer meI don't ask for much
Truth be told I'd settle
For a life less frightening, a life less frighteningIs there a God tonight?
Up in the sky or is it empty just like me (Just like me)
A place where we can hide out from the night
Where you are all I need (Where you are all I need)
So all he says, goodbye, and close your eyes
Tell me what you say (Tell me what you say)
A life I sit inside this dream of mine
Where you are all I seeI don't ask for much
Truth be told I'd settle
For a life less frightening, a life less frightening
