Suffering from something we're not sure of
In a world, there is no cure for
These lives we live
Test negative for happiness
Flat line, no pulse, but eyes open
Single file like soldiers on a mission
If there's no war outside our heads
Why are we losing?

I don't ask for much
The truth be told I'd settle
For a life less frightening
A life less frightening
I don't ask for much
The truth be told I'd settle
For a life less frightening
A life less frightening

Hang me out to dry, I'm soaking
With the sins of knowing
What's gone wrong, but doing nothing
I still run
Time again I have found myself stuttering
Foundations pulled out from under me
This breath is wasted on them all
Will someone answer me?

I don't ask for much
The truth be told I'd settle
For a life less frightening
A life less frightening
I don't ask for much
The truth be told I'd settle
For a life less frightening
A life less frightening

Is there a God tonight?
Up in the sky, or is it empty just like me
(Just like me)
A place where we can hide
Out from the night
Where you are all I see (Where you are all I see)
So blow a kiss goodbye, close your eyes
Tell me what you see (Tell me what you see)
A lifetime set inside this dream of mine
Where you are all I see!

I don't ask for much
The truth be told I'd settle
For a life less frightening
A life less frightening
I don't ask for much
The truth be told I'd settle
For a life less frightening
A life less frightening
