The light keeps us just far enough for our mind to create a false reality.
As our eyes drift shut, I'm thinking back to all the lives I'll never touch or get to hold.
Cause I've been held down by my little black cloud and I'm still standing tall and proud,
Stand by my side, honey, and we'll own the world.
Erase the walls around us. Just get lost inside your new reality.
While your panic-stricken mother screams a lullaby of broken dreams.
Can it put your tired mind at ease?
Oh no...
Cause I've been held down by my little black cloud and I'm still standing tall and proud,
Stand by my side, honey, and we'll own the world.
Still standing, still proud.
Stand by my side, we'll own the world.
So here we are, alone again.
We'll take comfort in the friendliness we stole.
I sit, complacent, like a warhead, ready to blow.
Trying to savor what I don't already know.
Cause I've been held down with my head in the ground.
Held down by my little black cloud and I've been trying, again and again.
Still standing tall, in face of the odds, but I'm on my own.
Still standing, still proud.
Stand by my side, we'll own the world
