Tired clothes and vintage eyes

Search for the stars

The world you know lies inside

Velvet dreams and a candy prize



As a child I saw the world

In a million colors kaleidoscope

In every dream mother moon was full

Enraptured eyes watch the changing world



Tired clothes and vintage eyes

Search for the stars

The world you know lies inside

Velvet dreams and a candy prize



Against a wall of million words

I fight to shout right back

Trying to be heard

Take my ashes

But leave my soul

Take me higher

Where truth is gold



My childhood, diluted

My innocence polluted



Tired clothes and vintage eyes

Search for the stars

The world you know lies inside

Velvet dreams and a candy prize



I should know better

I heard the warnings

I should know better

When the walls are forming



So here I am

The boy inside the man

Yes I am

Take your hand help me understand



As a child i saw the world

In a million colors kaleidoscope



My childhood, diluted

My innocence polluted



Tired clothes and vintage eyes

Search for the stars

The world you know lies inside

Velvet dreams and a candy prize
