[Verse 1]
We've got the windows open wide
Hope a gentle breeze will dance on by and clear the air
And now the time has come, it seems
To shove some pills down my throat, to see if time will stand still
I don't think it will
[Hook]
Cause I know that I'm feeling fine; it's just in my mind
It's a fine line that we have drawn
[Verse 2]
We've got the windows open wide
Hope a gentle breeze will dance on by and clear the air
Of this six year old dust
And now the time has come, it seems
To shove some pills down my throat, to see if time will stand still
[Hook]
Cause I know that I'm feeling fine; it's just in my mind
It's a fine line that we have drawn
[Chorus]
I see the lights don't burn bright
It's clear that nobody's home tonight, despite what's told to me
I've watched the seasons going by turn an infant to a child
I still don't know what to say
[Post-Chorus]
But how the hands on the clock, over on that crumbling wall
They tell the truth
[Bridge]
I've been disturbed from my dreams
By a party in my veins
And now, one thing has lead to another
Why encode this into my life?
There must be a time and place to just ride this wave out
[Chorus]
I see the lights don't burn bright
It's clear that nobody's home tonight, despite what's told to me
I've watched the seasons going by turn an infant to a child
I still don't know what to say
[Outro]
And if the lights don't burn
There's nobody home tonight, no, there's nobody home
I still don't know what to say
And if the lights don't burn
You know there's nobody home tonight
But I'll be home, I'll be home - I'm always home
