Well there were days
When you thought you'd just go under
And the weekends that you never understood
When you flew from the bar only 17
You didn't bleed
And no one ever thought you would
And there were straights and lines
And every sort of option
To stay away from broken mirrors and your friends
But the summer was strung
With some mightily thread
You know I would never wait around, oh men
Come see the hiding rain
Come see the stillness in all their want
Come see the lovable strain of someone diving for all you know
Come see the strain of a real end-try
Come meet the criminals of this Napoleon ride
And there were the nights
We thought we would just surrender
To the stories of the miracles of gulls
Oh, and you flew from your sheets
Where your hours gone
Never sleep and no one ever thought you would
Come see the hiding rain
Come see the stillness in all their want
Come see the lovable strain of someone diving for all you know
Come see the strain of a real end-try
Come meet the criminals of this Napoleon ride
And there are illusions
And they're just not even want-some
To walk around a shiny peak of snow
And what a picture
That is to be saved for us
Now it's standing like it's just for us to know
There was a time in my life
When I was carried by all of you
Now I run like a man
Still don't know what I dive into
Come see the strain of a real end-try
Come meet the criminal of this Napoleon ride
