lyrics

I would give you my whole life
Just for one taste of that sweet, sweet rain
Don't even know what I'm chasing
I only know that I'm running away

All my friends
Are dirty dreamers
They walk in circles
Like true believers

I looked out into the faces
Trying to find every hint of approval
And wanting to give but just waiting, and taking
And secretly knowing the fools are all faking

All my friends
Are dirty dreamers
They walk in circles
Like true believers

All my friends
Are dirty dreamers
They fly in circles
Like true sky screamers

Lead us down to the ocean
Take our souls on a ship in the night time
And make us believe everything is alright
Cos we only can live till the end of our lives

Confusion is everywhere
Hiding in buildings of concrete and glass
Behind every knowing and beautiful glance
Under the clothes of the composting ants

Lead us down to the ocean
Take our souls on a ship in the night time
And make us believe everything is alright
Cos we only can live till the end of our lives

I would give you my whole life
Just for the feeling of being alive
Just for the feeling of needing one more
Just for acceptance and just for release

All my friends
Are dirty dreamers
They walk in circles
Like true believers

Lead us down to the ocean
Take our souls on a ship in the night time
And make us believe everything is alright
Cos we only can live till the end of our lives
