Life is bigger

 It’s bigger than you

 And you are not me

 The lengths that I will go to

 The distance in your eyes

 Oh no I’ve said too much

 I set it up

 

 That’s me in the corner

 That’s me in the spotlight

 Losing my religion

 Trying to keep up with you

 And I don’t know if I can do it

 Oh no I’ve said too much

 I haven’t said enough

 I thought that I heard you laughing

 I thought that I heard you sing

 I think I thought I saw you try

 

 Every whisper

 Of every waking hour i’m

 Choosing my confessions

 Trying to keep an eye on you

 Like a hurt lost and blinded fool

 Oh no I’ve said too much

 I set it up

 

 Consider this

 The hint of the century

 Consider this

 The slip that brought me

 To my knees failed

 What if all these fantasies

 Come flailing around

 Now I’ve said too much

 I thought that I heard you laughing

 I thought that I heard you sing

 I think I thought I saw you try

 

 But that was just a dream

 That was just a dream
