We tell other stories ours are too hard to say

And avoid our reflections to keep doubts at bay

Close your eyes make believe, this is only a dream

And the real life is yet to come

We're sitting ducks in a storm blackened clouds above our heads

And sleep's playing hide and go seek with us in our beds

Let's be happy between sad, stop to watch dipping suns

And hold the end of our strings when we start to come undone

(Chorus)

Ooh let us laugh through our tears since pain wont let us run

Ooh let us choose a shade other than blue, other than blue

Ooh let's refuse to believe, that this is as good as it gets

Oh let's, let's, let's

We're contradictions with our addictions

What we do is not really what we want

We're our own punching bags

What a sad thing we've done

When we just want to feel good and be free of this haze

(Chorus)

Ooh let us laugh through our tears since pain wont let us run

Ooh let us choose a shade other than blue, other than blue

Ooh let's refuse to believe, that this is as good as it gets

Oh let's, let's, let's

(Bridge)

Let us set goals that seem far to hard to achieve

Do the things that makes us believe

In fairy tales and ever after, in homecomings and raptures

That life's not done the best is yet to come

That life's not done the best is yet to come

Woah woah woah....

(Chorus)

Ooh let us laugh through our tears

Ooh let us choose a shade other than blue

Ooh let's refuse to believe, that this is as good as it gets

Oh let's, let's, let's

Oh let's, let's, let's
