Shoot a dream in your arm
And sleep away
It's not the stuff that kills you
That keeps your life at bay
Every crash pulls you in reach
Of a watershed of signal flares
That cover your beach
These are just placebos
To make us feel all right
Illusions in our pockets
Make our feathers float us high
For a second I thought I saw
Your eyelids rise
A moment something restless
Caught you by surprise
Surprise, surprise
We are so beautiful
When we sleep
Hearts of gold and eyes
So deep, deep, deep
But love won't cure the chaos
And hope won't hide the loss
And peace is not the heroine
That shouts above the cause
And love is wild for reasons
And hope though short in sight
Might be the only thing
That wakes you by surprise
Surprise, surprise
And dream, little ones
See the world just begun
And love is wild for reasons
And hope though short in sight
Might be the only thing
That wakes you by surprise
For a moment I thought I saw
Your eyelids rise
Surprise, surprise
