Tell me I'm imagining these things
Say this isnt what I think it means
Hold me close and wipe the tears from my eyes
Tell me that I'm going to be something more
then this
Tell me that its just a bad dream and then please bid me goodnight
I wanted us to be something more
then this
we are nothing more
then what we are and thats all we're gonna be
I dreamt of lights and cars and love
Of places so very far away from prying eyes
I dreamt of answers to all the questions we were asking God that night
We were the ones who were gonna be something more
We werent gonna let ourselves get drawn into the world of endless night
We were never gonna lose control and throw away our starlit sky
We were never gonna settle for something less then more
But its all over now
I can't believe in something more
All our plans have crushed and faded
All of us were underated and by the time they saw us it was far too late
Oh God I wanna be so much more
then this
A hallow shell of someone who deserves a second chance
Someone who fell and despite her yells
Never really made it back
I tried so hard to be something more
for you
I wanted to give you something to believe
I wanted to show you that theres more to people then you think
I wanted you to know
that you could be something more
That to think and have your own opinion is perfectly in line
That no one had the right to tell you no
I was supposed to do something more
to show the world its not so alone
that people care and its not so very bad
But no one cares anymore
and I'm all alone
And I hate to say it but I have to make a choice
I must give up
There is no way to save
no way to save you now
I have nothing left for you and I myself am no more
I can only hope for something more
and that you give it all you have
Maybe you'll find what we were looking looking for
that night
and untill we meet again
I simply wish you a bitter sweet goodbye
And I hope you find
I hope you find
Something a little bit more
