A flash in the dark, a knock on the table
Beautiful dreamer, pitiful failure
Hanging from a high wire
Floating through the fireflies
Dreaming in the golden glow
In the haze and smoke
In the saturation and light

Turns you out cold caught in a wire
As you try, try, try, try, try
While the whole world passes you by

A knock on the door, a gossip, a fable
Making the scene in full regalia
Standing in a long line
Tangled in the wasted time
Every little minute you stay in it
You blame yourself
And it cuts in you like a knife

And you bleed out into the night
As you cry, cry, cry, cry, cry
While the whole world passes you by

Spent your days in a ruin
Nobody there calming you
So many contrary thoughts
And emotions cutting through
I can't move
Washing over me
Every day we waste
Is gone now

Clawing the banks of the muddy Missouri
Beautiful dreamer woke up in the cooler
Drowning in the hard times
Clinging to the power lines
You couldn't let 'em go
And now you use it to hang yourself
For the goddamn rest of your life

Running out low hanging to dry
As you try, try, try, try, try
While the whole world passes you by
