Lyrics
Shoot a dream in your arm
And sleep away
It's not the stuff that kills you
That keeps your life at bay
Every crash pulls you in reach
Of a watershed of signal flares
That cover your beach
These are just placebos to make us feel all right
Illusions in our pockets make our feathers float us high
For a second I thought I saw your eyelids rise
A moment somethin' restless caught you by surprise
Surprise, surprise
We are so beautiful when we sleep
Hearts of gold and eyes so
Deep, deep, deep
But love won't cure the chaos
Hope won't hide the loss
And peace is not the heroine that shouts above the cause
And love is wild for reasons
Hope though short in sight
Might be the only thing that wakes you by surprise
Surprise, surprise
Dream, little one
See the world just begun
Love is wild for reasons
Hope though short in sight
Might be the only thing that brings you back to life
For a moment I thought I saw your eyelids rise
Surprise
Surprise
