(yeah oh yeah) you called the boom boom... i was running in my mind yeah a self trip on replay. turtle shell heart with cuts that don't expire like driving around playing the same old song on the wire. unnoticed for years a quiet mental fight casting shadows wherever i go even in the twilight moonlight gaze. i truly just want to know why why... i play my role right feed the fuel with a bite tucking away my doubts in and out of the night. they beat over the head our dreams with “wait” and “no,” but we’re woozy warriors ready for the show. we shadowboxed the void not here for no sing along i still haven't gotten what i wanted but this time we can't be wrong. yeah ya ya yaye aye! catch up catch up! we break free! speed up get up! it's always been we! you danced with woozy hope defying every fall a happy swing rebellion we punched above our weight for all! we grinned rewriting empty fate— bet on it! a single step we reset the groove! whip the leash! (yeah!) running through my mind! (my mind!) knock them all down! (whoa!) leave the past behind! catch up! speed up! get up! whip the leash! (yeah!) running through my mind! (my mind!) knock them all down! (whoa!) leave the past behind! catch up! speed up! get up! the puzzle pieces never match but somehow we don’t mind the patch like an escalator pick pocketing dreams on a narrow escape fast. i was daydreaming all day about this song still haven't gotten what i wanted but watching your faceplant pile drive the irony's witty and haunted. farmer's call flop and spin—a funny witty sight we shout with mouths that didn't move making simple shorts stories right. whip the leash! it’s off now! let's get out of your way. why can’t it be me? (why why?) always taking the last slice doubting my last choice but listening to my inner voice... oh i see you till the end. i don't even want that white picket fence trail i just want to be with who i want to be (with we) and never fail. he spins the wheel and silence sounds like lullaby we sigh at sparks that used to fly in silk regret we lie. i hope to see you standing at the corner waving me down... riding shotgun steady... oh i'm ready. a joke once told that made us cry now loops with laughs we can't deny. catch up catch up! we break free! speed up get up! it's always been we! you danced with woozy hope defying every fall a happy swing rebellion we punched above our weight for all! i roared like a viking breaking fate’s stone wall we never made the press but we heard the listener's call. the funny fearless and fleeting moments of our days glories the true moral isn't the trail or the rights or the wrongs. it's that a turtle shell heart can be broken if it's broken together. so let it keep going on not because of the dreaming...
