three days on the road to anywhere   did I hear you call   and in the average hello   you lost your way   did I hear you fall   cut down from behind at best   a simple word that lingered in the air   somewhere you wandered off into the night   and broke all your promises there      I'm a flood, I'm a waterfall   never to disappear in the sea      bless my head I think I said   with a reason to believe that a voice again   and though the words keep falling to the ground   they make no sound until you're gone   and then they scream      sleep tonight this pain I'll never feel   sleep tonight in here it's not so real   sleep tonight this flame will touch much soul   sleep tonight this flame will never go away      pardon me if I seem a little distant   you could always read my eyes   I guess it doesn't take the wisdom of the ages   or a crystal ball to see this disguise
