Would?ve been nice to have had some kind of warning
Something to prepare me for dark days like this
Would?ve been in the church early every Sunday morning
Now I just can?t get off my knee
So the music?s gone and the colors fading
Winter came to steal and bankrupt every single tree
Didn?t realize it was always there until it was taken
Guess that?s the trouble about me
I close my eyes so I get carried away
Lift all my hands praying that someone will take me
Something?s been up with me lately
Keep dreaming ?bout, dreaming ?bout helicopters and planes
I spend my nights looking right up at the sky
I came right out so so they come and see me
Something?s been up with me lately
Keep dreaming ?bout, dreaming ?bout helicopters and planes
Weight of nation on my shoulder
Keeping my feet on the ground
And the cold was slowly getting colder
This room feels like a lost and found
Shadows grow and paint me pictures
Introduce me to a brand new kind of love
I know I should have never trusted any wizard
They promise me a brand new home
I close my eyes so I get carried away
Lift all my hands praying that someone will take me
Something?s been up with me lately
Keep dreaming ?bout, dreaming ?bout helicopters and planes
I spend my nights looking right up at the sky
I came right out so so they come and see me
Something?s been up with me lately
Keep dreaming ?bout, dreaming ?bout helicopters and planes
I live life for the moment
My life ain?t perfect in the morning
As a child I felt hopeless
Could the pain goes deeper than the ocean
I looked to the sky for a potion
That could wash away the pain of a soldier
That try to put chain in proportion
But this dark great days get colder
And this dark great days ain?t over
So I prayed but I can?t stay sober
And I can?t blame no one
But my heart beats no love
And I can?t sleep sometimes
Every time I dream about the sunshine and take off
I wake up same place stop just case enough
Go!
I close my eyes so I get carried away
Lift all my hands praying that someone will take me
Something?s been up with me lately
Keep dreaming ?bout, dreaming ?bout helicopters and planes
I spend my nights looking right up at the sky
I came right out so so they come and see me
Something?s been up with me lately
Keep dreaming ?bout, dreaming ?bout helicopters and planes
