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 something 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 And hope won't hide the loss And peace is not the heroine That shouts above the cause And love is wild for reasons And hope though short in sight Might be the only thing That wakes you by surprise Surprise, surprise And dream, little ones See the world just begun And love is wild for reasons And hope though short in sight Might be the only thing That wakes you by surprise For a moment I thought I saw Your eyelids rise Surprise, surprise
