Dreams from the gutter
You're falling away
Your skin looks pretty gray
A fleeting desire
It's hidden away
Never sees the light of day
I could never see past the headlights
Clinging to a dream I'll never get right
Fleeting desires
Burst into flames
At the first light of day
Tainted by liars
You hide it away
The things you'll never say
Always sticking out for the low ride
Always on the prowl for a hot night
Betting all you have on a losing hand
I wonder if I'm scared enough
Falling in and out of love
You say I'm not
But I'm fading at your side again
They call me an expert
At talking the talk
Too scared to walk the walk
I could never see past the headlights
Clinging to a dream I'll never get right
Betting all you have on a losing hand
I wonder if I'm scared enough
Falling in and out of love
You say I'm not
But I'm fading at your side
Falling in and out of love again
Is leading me nowhere
You say I'm not
But I'm fading at your side
When I see you laughing
It's all over your face
It all returns again
I yearn for silence
Bury me instead
I wonder if I'm scared enough
Falling in and out of love
Dreams from the gutter
You're falling away
Your skin looks pretty gray
I wonder if I'm scared enough
Falling in and out of love
Not sure I even care enough
Falling in and out of love
Falling in and out of love again
Is leading me nowhere again
Betting all I have on losing hands
Wonder if I'm scared enough
