If the dreaming keeps you up
I'll try to turn it down a notch
Just a reflex, just a joke, just a way to keep it 
primed
If you want to take a break
Or maybe turn it down a notch
I can only wish you all the luck and all the time

ch:
Oh, you look so beautiful, oh you look so radiant
Oh you look resplendent in your element and in your 
prime
Oh you look so dangerous, so obvious and so elusive
Like a falling comet in your prime

I don't want to bring you down
So let me reinvent myself
Everything that rises must resolve
Open up that almanac
And point a finger to your favorite page
Cut to black, a hazy green dissolve (ch)

Think of all the flesh that feeds the worms
That feed the dust that feeds the earth
That rises up to strike us down
With its cool revenge again and again and again and...

If you want another cup
Well let me crack the seal
I love to see the candle fade away
If you want to raise a fuss
Well, I'm the audience you want
It's so hard to make it today (ch)
