lyrics

I only dance in dim lit rooms
Behind your closing eyes
A vision in an empty tomb
Theatre of the mind

Why can’t we figure out
All we can live without
And burn it away in a fire we made

I run with other horses now
As far as you can tell
No longer young and I’ve grown tired
From time to time
But I’m still following that same old
Never-ending carousel, oh

Why can’t we figure out
All we can live without
And drown it all out in a flood for the ages
For the ages
