Tired clothes and vintage eyes
Search for the stars
The world you know lies inside
Velvet dreams and a candy prize

As a child I saw the world
In a million colors kaleidoscope
In every dream mother moon was full
Enraptured eyes watch the changing world

Tired clothes and vintage eyes
Search for the stars
The world you know lies inside
Velvet dreams and a candy prize

Against a wall of million words
I fight to shout right back
Trying to be heard
Take my ashes
But leave my soul
Take me higher
Where truth is gold

My childhood, diluted
My innocence polluted

Tired clothes and vintage eyes
Search for the stars
The world you know lies inside
Velvet dreams and a candy prize

I should know better
I heard the warnings
I should know better
When the walls are forming

So here I am
The boy inside the man
Yes I am
Take your hand help me understand

As a child i saw the world
In a million colors kaleidoscope

My childhood, diluted
My innocence polluted

Tired clothes and vintage eyes
Search for the stars
The world you know lies inside
Velvet dreams and a candy prize
