There's an echo pulling out
the meaning
Rescuing a nightmare
from a dream
The voices in my head are
always screaming
That none of this means
anything to me
And it's a long way back
from seventeen
The whispers turn into a scream
And I I'm not coming home
Save your breath I'm nearly
Bored to death and fading fast
Life is too short to last long
Back on Earth I'm broken
Lost and cold and fading fast
Life is too short to last long
There's a stranger staring
at the ceiling
Rescuing a tiger from a tree
The pictures in her head are
always dreaming
Each of them means everything to me
And it's a long way back
from seventeen
The whispers turn into a scream
And I I'm not coming home
Save your breath I'm nearly
Bored to death and fading fast
Life is too short to last long
Back on Earth I'm broken
Lost and cold and fading fast
Life is too short to last long
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
I think I met her at the minute that
the rhythm was set down
I said I'm sorry I'm a bit of a letdown
But all my friends are
daring me to come over
So I come over and over and over
So let me buy you a drink
and we'll pretend that you think
That I'm the man of your dreams
come to life in a dive bar
And we'll go over and over and over
And we'll go over and over and over
And we'll go over and over and over
And we'll go over and over and over
Save your breath I'm nearly
Bored to death and fading fast
Life is too short to last long
Back on Earth I'm broken
Lost and cold and fading fast
Life is too short to last long
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Life is too short to last long
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh
