I am still without devotion
C
Cause we're all asleep at the wheel
Am
Asleep and so surrounded by what we feel

A bad dream
C
On a rope and pulled through the ocean
Am
With my heart, I'm lost out at sea
G

So lonely
Am C
I'm a Johnny-come-lately
Am
But I will not give up
C
And the words they escape me
Am
But I'm full of dumb luck

And the world is an oyster, with a poisonous shell
C
And the look in my eye is a look that can kill

Am
I have ran from the pain of my will
G
From the mess that I hunt
The catch and the thrill
C
And I knew

Cause I left a few white calls at his front door
I'll leave more (dream of it)
