i took a long hard look
i took a? long hard look at the heroes of my youth. and their antics on the page there on can no longer sustain me ever since i was a boy they brought me joy but the shackles of the way i was can no longer contain me it was exciting and enlightening reverberating through my dreams goodbye to reality and set a course for wayward schemes. now i can't sing i can't feel i don't know what is real. i was travelling through the past for years tell me what's my destination now the past is gone i don't even have a song we've not sung before to a closing door tell me what's my situation? i saw the film i lived the book i got the haircut that's all it took but now i know it's going to take a little more now i'm awake i took along hard look now i'm waiting for the phone to ring i glance at the inbox is there any tantalising mail there in there was lust in my restless heart but now i know what true love means goodbye to reality and set sail for dreamsy
