Oh, wake me please, when this is over
Oh, when the ice is melted away
And the hunger returns
I will feel the same but older
And they'll be twice the man that I thought I was
Where have you been?
And what have you done?
I've been under the ground
Reading prayers
From this old book I found
Under the ground, saving it up
And spending it all
On moving pictures
Silent films
Moving pictures
Silent films
Oh, is this the dream I've been saving?
Oh, where the heart beats slower and slower
To almost nothing, almost nothing, almost nothing
I took care for longer
At least something beautiful
Out there in the spotlight
But turned around softly
Turned around, squinting
It's all they heard was headlights
And then the truth
The truth was unbearable
Oh, and iminent bearing down on
These two shadowed animals
Called painting a dotted line
Called painting a dotted line
Called painting a dotted line
Where have you been?
And what have you done?
I've been under the ground
Reading prayers
From this old book I found
Under the ground
Saving it up, and spending it all
On moving pictures
Silent films
Moving pictures
Silent films
