Cartoon

Now everybody's looking after me If I'm dragging by some coat tail, I can't see; it's too dark But I've got to know what's got the best of me When the circus that you left goes on parade In those bleacher seats so far in your charade, it's too far But I'm feeling like I don't dare look away Don't look away Did it almost make you feel, that something's gonna happen soon? When you wake up feeling lost in your own room If you're crying in your beer, you're gonna drown If you think we'll rise above, you better look around, you'll see It's a mountain made of sand comin' under me Maybe I'm chasing shadows on your wall They loom so large, but make me feel so small so hard When you're chasing your own tail spinning your own wheels On a night when the wolves were all silent (tried everything, tried looking away) And the moon howled (I tried to leave, I tried to stay, tried everything, tried looking away) Did it almost make you feel, that something's gonna happen soon? You're in the movies now and I'm in your cartoon There's a ringing in my ear that's heaven-sent There's a beast out on the ruins, some broken down lover's lament It goes on and on but it won't go away
