The paint is peeling off the walls I hear your footsteps in the hall Another night I can't explain Another face behind the rain I kept the words I never said Like broken glass beneath my bed The world moved on, the clocks agreed But something stayed awake in me And I don't know what I'm waiting for With one foot out and one at the door I'm still dreaming with my eyes wide open Still believing in the things I've broken Every road leads somewhere I can't see But there's a restless little ghost in me I'm still dreaming, though the lights burn out Still screaming silently inside this town If all I have is what remains I'll chase the feeling through the static again The midnight bus cuts through the street Its empty windows look like me I wear my failures like a coat And swallow every word I wrote The old arcade has lost its sound The same old faces gather round We trade our youth for something safe Then wonder why we feel misplaced And I don't know what I'm waiting for But I can't keep sleeping on this floor I'm still dreaming with my eyes wide open Still believing in the things I've broken Every road leads somewhere I can't see But there's a restless little ghost in me I'm still dreaming, though the lights burn out Still screaming silently inside this town If all I have is what remains I'll chase the feeling through the static again Maybe I was never meant to fit Maybe there's no cure for any of this I don't need the answers tonight I just need a reason to ignite Let the feedback fill the air Let the whole world stop and stare If tomorrow never looks the same At least I never killed the flame I'm still dreaming with my eyes wide open Still reaching for a door left broken Every road leads somewhere I can't see But there's still a little life inside of me I'm still dreaming, let the lights burn out I found my voice beneath the doubt If all I have is what remains I'll chase the feeling through the static again Still dreaming... Still dreaming... The signal fades, but I'm awake.
