Don't Haunt the Dream

I miss the pastiche poltergeist God left when he made it rain The fragments of your touch on the right window that fog swept away There's all the meaning you ate to hide Left translucent inside your mind If love's a lie, it's do or die, it's do or die And all my life it's been Wear all black to the meeting at the new affair So rare, you're desperate for the prepared Wonder at a separate life like mine And inches from the blazing sun at all times I've had enough of reaching in towards a soul you'll do without Oh, it haunts me Well, we're here, don't leave the engine running Don't haunt the dream, just take my money And promise me I'll see you in the morning Oh, it haunts me Well, we're here, don't leave the engine running Don't haunt the dream, just take my money And promise me I'll see you in the morning Stuck in their old philosophies, no room for making a change Crashing with the western economy Drugged out, yet you think I'm deranged Such well put together people, green eyes but they see no evil The genocides, and suicides, and you and I, and you and I Star struck among the faithless and the renegades Headlights that blind from the interstate Guiding us to cruel grips of time and fate Holy things that don't stop us anyways Got caught still trying to be someone To the Gods of Nightclub, America But you know I won't Oh, it haunts me Well, we're here, don't leave the engine running Don't haunt the dream, just take my money And promise me I'll see you in the morning Oh, it haunts me Well, we're here, don't leave the engine running Don't haunt the dream, just take my money And promise me I'll see you in the morning So ghost if I'm your guest tonight, be gentle, give me a name I can't keep living in your old photos just out of frame
