Spectacular Failures

Life is but a dream Life is but a dream Life is but a dream Life is but a dream Life is but a dream in a greater scheme Wakin' up is hard to do Even if you're quick, somethin' holds you back Always waitin' in a queue for someone To tell you you're broke Or you should not smoke Anymore cigarettes Planets will align, if you give 'em time Nostradamus can't be wrong And when you least expect, everything connects Even when the hope is gone there is you And you'll keep your name And the things in your brain Just might see you through 'Cos you are light And in darkest night, you shine And I guess we're doin' fine But there's no escapin' our spectacular failure Diggin' in between things we never seen Tryin' to find the missin' links All these scientists are tryin' every trick Just before the city sinks without trace So much we've achieved So I hope when we leave There's a smile on our face 'Cos you are light And in darkest night, you shine And I guess we're doin' fine But there's no escapin' our spectacular failure 'Cos you are light And in darkest night, you shine And I guess we're doin' fine But there's no escapin' our spectacular failure
