Lyrics

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

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

That's me in the blinders
That's me in the spotlight
Fronting my reflection
Trying to get an eye on you
Like a hurt, lost and blinded fool
Oh no, I've said too much
It's just my imagination

Consider this the hint of the century
Consider this the slip
That brought me to my knees pale
What if all these fantasies
Come flailing around
Now 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

That was just a dream
That was just a dream

That was just a dream
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
But that was just a dream
Try, cry, why, try
That was just a dream
Just a dream, just a dream
