Stranded In The Mystery Zone

Suicidal cement screams
I seen 'em all inside my dreams
I see them coming through my head
Make me wish i was dead
Ghosts chase silent foes
I never knew i'd get aboard
Cover me in ice
Til the edge og time
Can you see the stream, drowning in
The deep
Something so bad
Can you see the ship, sacrifice
Myself
Grab you instead
Get onboard

Painted child seldom seen
I've gone another way to be
Put the mark upon my head
Make me wish i'm dead
The servants never called
The dog's been put in chains
They can't hear you anymore
They've all gone straight
No matter what they say
I guess it's really sad
To never get across
I looked into the eyes
The same as before
But i just got lost
Get on board

Castaways, gypsies of the dawn
Angels out of darkness with
Nowhere to belong
Bound together, we've been cast
Into the storm

Castaways, children of the damned
Abandoned by the future and the
Past can't understand
You've never had a change since
Your journey began

Castaways, misfits out of time
Tomorrow it won't matter and
Yesterday's behind
You won't live forever, you've got
Tombstones in your eyes

How many times have i said it before
You can't keep coming back once you walk out that door
I don't know why i take it time and again
You're like a building on fire
Rockets in the sky
The heat of the city that's burning in my eyes
I never should have fell for you
Let you do me like you do
And i can't, i can't get a fix on you

How can you tell me in the dark of despair
That i'm the only one who ever really cared
How many times have you said it to the others
Things being said, talk going down
There's been rumors in the alley and they're gettin' uptown
I never shoulda listened to you
Every lie you tell's like the truth
And i can't, i can't get a fix on you

Every time i get the courage to kiss it all goodbye
I start thinkin' 'bout the moments you keep creepin' in my life
Every time i tell you this will be the last time
The building catches fire
The rockets in the sky
The heat of the city starts burning in my eyes
I never shoulda fell for you
Let you do me like you do
And i can't, i can't get a fix on you

Baby, baby, baby, come home on the midnight train
I been so long from you i can't remember when
I need you, little girl, 'cause i'm leanng on the wicked ledge
No matter how i try to get you outa my head

Time's running in on me
I don't care about security
Please won't you come on home
'cause i'm crazy, crazy, crazy for you down to the bone

Baby, baby, baby, through the eye of a hurricane
That's how far i'd go to see you again
The mystery telephone caller's dead on the line
Tried to get a message to you but it's been all night

Baby, baby, baby, come home on the midnight train
I'll be waiting on the platform to get you in my arms again
I never through you mattered, mattered as much as you do
I never thought being alone was being without you

Smoke another cigarette, watch the rain
Put me on the outskirts of a mental train
What's done's been done, you can't change that
I couldn't make the window, i couldn't go back

Is there no getting free
Something's dying inside me
Pain for pretty can't you see
Changes... oh, no, no

Watching the predictions, it looks like snow
I'd like to travel south but i can't go
December's on the crest, almost gone
Shadows on the pavement never looked so long

Maybe it's my attitude, i can't get straight
Take me like i am or throw me away
Trying to kill the dream that's inside me
I don't want to end up your casualty

I've been noticing some changes
It's not so hard
Took a long time to get here
We came from so far
And if i had it all to do again
I wouldn't change a thing

And i still want you
Love in the altitudes, no one but me and you

At the age of temptation
You were so young then
I was looking for relation
You were looking for a friend
And your hair was long just like now
In the room we fell into

And i still want you
Love in the altitudes, no one but me and you

I've seen the pages, the haunting lie
Someone discouraging me
They said you'll lose interest
And you'll get tired of me
But i ain't worried, you know it girl
It's been so long it seems

And i still want you
Love in the altitudes, no one but me and you
