lyrics

there was a dream, i knew i had to dream it
fifty fifty's never much, but i'm out of touch
inches away
racking my brain to give you reasons to stay

maybe there's a line i haven't thought of yet?
maybe there's a chance if i keep scribbling, scribbling
dribbling drool won't do me no good
unconventional, sure, but cracking open my hood you
pump my heart, set my veins on fire
shake my soul when cliches are tired
straightforward's gotta be the path to take
so it's a damn shame i'm not cool enough to say

"stay with me, the possibilities are endless, love"

the wind in the reeds, i hear it speak your name
it's like a bulwark mirth against every day the same
all i wanted was time but all i needed was birth
reincarnate my essence, rip lids off, unearth
all the stories i've hidden in alcoves long past
taste excitement and yearning
from truths you're still learning
the wind in the reeds, the story on my hands
it's talking that's painless when my sharing's shameless

there was a dream, i knew i had to dream it
sixty-forty, yeah i'm ever the optimist. what's there to say?
ten-ninety's probably accurate, but despair's passé
i know that's hypocritical in my darker days
but there's glimmers that i'll get it not giving in, giving in
giving up now won't do me no good
so if i'm wrong this time, then it's still sublime

to believe again this journey my feet tread
will lead me on to greater things
cause i can change my life, but i can't change my death
so take the ride, it's all i've got

oh say you stayed with me
the possibilities are endless, love
i'm itching to know what's in store

so stay with me, the possibilities are endless, love
i'm itching to know what's in store
