Song by Billy Pilgrim<br /><br>

Another sleepless night, turn off my light <br>

turn it off <br>

Open my books, take in silence, <br>

and wait for the dawn <br>

Lock myself into place <br>

Keep the sun off my face <br>

When the morning comes <br>

TRY to keep it all in sight <br>

<br>

Form one thought, break it off, take a breath, <br>

carry on <br>

You think you matter so much <br>

that you're the only one <br>

In your mind you're a star <br>

that I can see from afar <br>

Before you've even begun <br>

to TRY to keep it all in sight <br>

If you feel it then open your heart <br>

No need to ask it what for <br>

Blood runs cold when it's shut from the sun <br>

So open your door and what's more, TRY <br>

<br>

Worked for years on their temples <br>

to burn them all down <br>

An angry horde disbelievin' set fire sacred ground <br>

In its place they built tanks <br>

Think, fish, and drunk tanks <br>

And just to tear the sky down <br>

They tried to conquer all in sight <br>

Walled their cities as hight as they could <br>

Kept them apart from themselves <br>

Fought for ages and raged on the plains <br>

with reasons misunderstood <br>

but to the common good <br>

Raised up their idols proteced their own walked on dinosaur bones <br>

Spread a pestilent nature from mountain to sky <br>

Until the rivers ran dry <br>

and the rivers ran dry <br>

that they owned <br>

<br>

Watch the lights flash by my window <br>

Throw ghosts on the wall <br>

And every room in my house <br>

answers back when I call <br>

Trace the outline within <br>

Trust in dreams to begin <br>

TRY to keep it all in sight <br>

And TRY to work it all out <br>

TRY if you will, TRY if they won't <br>

You're damned if you do and you're damned if you don't <br>

TRY<br>

<br>
