You're a kettle looking for a lid. Caught cold In the middle of the summer like a little kid. Got the heat In my lungs like I almost drowned. Running, running to the other side of town. In the middle of a dream I can hear you calling In the middle of a dream I can hear you say I hear you knocking But you can't come in. So I will write you a requiem. You've been looking right into the sun White light Bet you didn't know it shines like that for everyone What's your name Where you from Why'd you come downtown? I been running, running, running but I never hit the ground. In the middle of a dream I can hear you calling In the middle of a dream I can hear you say I hear you knocking But you can't come in. So I will write you a requiem. So I will write you a requiem. In the middle of a dream I can hear you calling In the middle of a dream I can hear you say I hear you knocking But you can't come in. So I will write you a requiem. You said it gets better But you didn't say when So I will write you a requiem. So I will write you a requiem.
