Lyrics

I saw the devil in a dream
He wore a three-piece suit and was smiling
He promised every living thing to me

And when the land was all despair
He made water spring from everywhere
Until the black hills turned back to green

And then heat was tipping and smoke was spilling
They poured out into the street
And I was frightened by my fearlessness to be engulfed by everything

And what I knew, was left behind
There were no stars, or a wish, to find
And there was nothing in my clenching fist
And I just can't wait for tomorrow
Cause I will let go-
Just ask me

I saw the devil in a dream
He wore faded jeans, and was smiling
He promised every living thing to me

And when a soul was in despair
He made confetti fall from everywhere
Until the restless eyes go back to sleep
And then minds were tipping and thoughts were spilling
They poured out into the street
And I was frightened by my fearlessness to be drowned by everything

And what I knew, was left behind
There were no stars, or a wish, to find
And there was nothing in my clenching fist
And I just can't wait for tomorrow
Cause I will let go-
Just ask me

And what I knew, was left behind
There were no stars, or a wish, to find
And there was nothing in my clenching fist
And I just can't wait for tomorrow
Cause I will let go-
Just ask me
