Spectacular Failures

Life is but a dream
Life is but a dream
Life is but a dream
Life is but a dreamLife is but a dream in a greater scheme
Wakin' up is hard to do
Even if you're quick, somethin' holds you back
Always waitin' in a queue for someoneTo tell you you're broke
Or you should not smoke
Anymore cigarettesPlanets will align, if you give 'em time
Nostradamus can't be wrong
And when you least expect, everything connects
Even when the hope is gone there is youAnd you'll keep your name
And the things in your brain
Just might see you through'Cos you are light
And in darkest night, you shine
And I guess we're doin' fine
But there's no escapin' our spectacular failureDiggin' in between things we never seen
Tryin' to find the missin' links
All these scientists are tryin' every trick
Just before the city sinks without traceSo much we've achieved
So I hope when we leave
There's a smile on our face'Cos you are light
And in darkest night, you shine
And I guess we're doin' fine
But there's no escapin' our spectacular failure'Cos you are light
And in darkest night, you shine
And I guess we're doin' fine
But there's no escapin' our spectacular failure
