What I want is not out there
It doesn’t exist but in my dreams
And I spend too much time sleeping
At least, that’s the way it seems

The world outside is so cold and frightening
And I don’t want to go it alone
I just wish I had some shelter from the lightning
But I have nowhere to go

I’m just looking for some answers
And there’s only one that I could find
Truth or lies, it makes no difference,
Cos all I am is what’s inside

I read the letter that you wrote me
How you said that you were doing fine
I might have believed, if not for the picture
I swear that those are tears in your eyes

You told me not to worry
Then talked about the good ol’ days
The words were coated with regret
About the choices you had made

You said you’d like to come and see me
If only you could find the time
As it is, you’re far too busy
To deal with what’s inside
