Oh 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 spot-light
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
That was just a dream
That was just a dream
That was just a dream
Just a dream
Just a dream
Dream
What if all these fantasies come
Flailing around
Now I've said too much
That's me in the corner
That's me in the spot-light
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
