lyrics

Got a long post from a former friend for life
Saying sorry sounding scared
How'd we ever drift so far apart?
With all the languages we shared
Was it me or was it something more divine?
What was it pulled him everywhere?
It pulled him everywhere

We hold for proof of any kind
We search for signs of any kind
That if one who dials a code unloads the other will forgive him

Took a dive in city pool at broker light
It was travesty surreal
Everywhere I looked the angels disappeared
Only cold men's wicked deals
Was it nothing but a sudden disarray?
Or all holiness repealed?
All our holiness repealed

We pose for beauty in our lives
We stand for duty in our lives
But for all our screeds and messed up deeds we'll surely need forgiving

Is there anybody here who sees a better way to stumble?
(I really want to know)
Is there any other place where we can rest relieved?
(I need to understand)
Why does it seem like every dreamer helps make someone else's crumble?
Is there a way to scream?
Or somehow move beyond this
I have had enough

Caught a wake-up through the steady roar below
Lost a darkness hard to find
I bless the beast that roams the wild jester's road
Inside my child's mind
The distance left to travel til the void
Is less than what's behind
It's less than what's behind

I've pursued the truth through music all my life
It's led me to abuses once or twice
At the final call when curtains fall I hope my soul's forgiven

Out shine the numbers
Out class the numbers
Out grow the numbers
Out last the numbers
Out fake the numbers
Out play the numbers
Out leap the numbers
Out run the numbers

Out shout the numbers

Gimmee one more ride before it's over
Gimmee one more ride then I'll cross over
Gimmee one more ride before it's over
Gimmee one more ride then I'll pass over
Gimmee one more ride before it's over
