Lyrics

[Verse 1]
What do you do with yourself
When you see the storm clouds rising?
Feeling alone with yourself
As the sun fades away
[Verse 2]
The memories come to and fro
The trouble is they never want to go
They come, never go
[Verse 3]
Imagination
[Verse 4]
It's just your imagination rolling over the past
It can change your mind completely
It's just my imagination running wild and too fast
But I know it won't defeat me
[Verse 5]
Look into the eyes of Medusa
And she'll turn your world to stone
She'll tear at your eyes and seduce you
And your soul will be gone
[Verse 6]
The messages and hidden dreams
Of former lives and lovers never seen
A love never seen
[Verse 7]
Imagination
[Verse 8]
It's just your imagination rolling over the past
It can change your mind completely
It's just my imagination running wild and too fast
But I know it won't defeat me
[Verse 9]
What do you do with yourself
When you're lost on some horizon?
Taking a hold of yourself
When you know the timing's wrong
[Verse 10]
The memories come to and fro
The trouble is they never want to go
[Verse 11]
Imagination
[Verse 12]
It's just your imagination rolling over the past
It can change your mind completely
It's just my imagination running wild and too fast
But I know it won't defeat me
[Verse 13]
It's just your imagination rolling over the past
It can change your mind completely
It's just my imagination running wild and too fast
But I know it won't defeat me
And I know it won't defeat me
