Real life, it keeps coming, it keeps coming
Sunshine, I could use some, I could use some rays
Of hope and clarity
Hold me
In the darkness of my lostness
Hear me
Shout into the, scream into the void
Where the dead go to dream
I’ll keep running, I’ll keep running
You stay where you are
No, you start running, if we’re both running
We won’t get very far
I will call upon the mystical, the magical
The fanciful illogical and pray
I will open up to mythic maps and miracles
To holy words that frightened people say
Bad dreams in our beds and in our heads
We worry, we take the blues, we take the reds, but still
We can’t sleep through the night
Someday, can we even use that word?
I'm afraid, if all the things I overheard are true
Then I just want to hide
Doubts are gnawing, tears are falling
On this judgment day
Fortunes falling, fortune’s calling
Me another way
I will call upon the mystical, the magical
The fanciful illogical and pray
I will open up to mythic maps and miracles
To holy words that frightened people say
Only mystery
Is big enough to meet us
To forgive us and to heal us today
There’s too much out of our hands
In this desecrated land
Thousands going into the ground
Can this boat be turned around?
All this poisoned politics
These hypocrites and heretics
Worse than mediocrities
They’re a swarm of killer bees
Where, oh where did we go wrong?
Can anything be healed with a song?
How much more can we all take?
How long until our hearts all break open for good?
For good, for good
For good, good, good, good, good
I will call upon the mystical, the magical
The fanciful illogical and pray
I will open up to mythic maps and miracles
To holy words that frightened people say
Only mystery
Is big enough to meet us
To forgive us and to heal us
