In cold apartment right next to my room
You'll just sit there quiet after I
Have warned you with a broom
There's a girl outside who's climbing to the
roof
All my days are numbered she calls out and I believe that's true
There's a certain desperation on this floor
And in cursed solitude you try to imagine
There's more
It's the quintessencial goal for everyone
In this sorry town
That's drowing in its own aspirations
Give me truth and give me real
Give me
Something I can feel
And for the first time I'll be see'in
Give me
Something to believe in
Give me rockets! send me high
Shoot me soaring
Through the sky
And unconscious, I'll be dreamin
About something to believe
In tonight
On a road outside with streetlights burning deep
Switch the
Lights on, turn the engine, drive the vehicle down east
In this cold and empty
City where you sleep;
I'll return there in the morning if I have to use my
feet...
And all the tickets that I garnered in pursuit
Of a life, of a
Future, that has much to do with you
I'm not pleased, no, but again I'm not ashamed
All the smiling and the fingers tend to dull away the pain
Give me
Truth and give me real
Give me something I can feel
And for the first time
I'll be see'in
Give me something to believe in
Give me rockets! send me
high
Shoot me soaring through the sky
And unconscious, I'll be
dreamin'
About something I believed in tonight
Now I could go, but I could stay
And be deaf to what they say
It'd be personally fulfilling
someday
Soon, if heaven's willing
All those lines drawn in the sand
Fall away right
Through your hands
Like the boxes I get caged in
Someday somebody'll break
them
And give me truth, give me real
Give me something I can feel
And for the first time I'd be seeing
Seeing something to believe in
Give me rockets!
Send me high
Shoot me soaring through the sky
And then unconcious, I'll be
dreamin'
About something I'll believe in tonight.
