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 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

every whisper
of every waking hour i'm
choosing my confessions
trying to keep an eye on you
like a hurt lost and blinded fool
oh no i've said too much
i set it up

consider this
the hint of the century
consider this
the slip that brought me
to my knees failed
what if all these [bad word] flailing around
now i've said too much
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
that was just a dream
