It's always getting clearer
It's coming through to me
Can you hear it in your ear
When you are fast asleep?

They're always sending letters
They wait for you at home
It's hard to drown it out
This empty, endless drone

And it's crumbling down
And it's rotting away
And you're wanting to leave
But you'll never escape

They call when you are sleeping
They shake your hand downtown
Seems like everywhere you go
They follow you around

You hear it when you're driving
You see it on the wall
Everytime you read it there
You feel nothing at all

And was it just a lie?
And was this all a dream?
Well, we always will wonder
But never believe

When they come from every angle
You can close your eyes
Turn your head
You don't have to reply

Come look into the water
Go stare into the sun
Don't let it haunt the thing
That you will soon become

And it's crumbling down
And it's rotting away
And you're wanting to leave
But you'll never escape

And was it just a lie?
And was this all a dream?
Well, we always will wonder
But never believed it could be
