There was a boy who had a dream About a world he'd never seen Where the buffalo they roam free With the nuclear submarines There was a boy who had a dream About a man who'd lead the world Into the darkest of the nights Where the shadows meet the void There was a boy who had a dream About a ship that's sinking near And there ain't nothing he can do And there ain't nothing ge wants to do There was a boy who had a dream About a diamond chandelier Falling from the sky Falling into his arms Tell me a story before you put me to sleep I want to believe in heroes Tell me the sun will shine again The garden is dying with us And the number they're all wrong And tge light is turning off And voice is getting far And his hands are feeling numb And the patterns don't make sense And the walls are closing in And the drugs are wearing out A million mile from home And his time is running out And the doctor is amused This place looks like a zoo There's nothing left to lose Tell me a story before you put me into sleep I want to belive in heroes Will we become what we have always feared? A plastic and a broken record Playing forever for no one to hear The jukebox keeps floating
