When the pin drops suddenlynAll the shapes and shadows fleenAnd the world in front of me comes tumbling downnLike a king on a matchstick thronenWho gave away everything he ownednAnd he's finally forced upon his ... crownnnAnd I wander and drift and the scenery shiftsnMinutes quickly turn into daysnAnd I wish I could know how the ending will gonBut it's always moving further awaynnSuddenly the sidewalk ends in the tangle of wildernessnAnd I'm not sure just which turn I took was wrongnThe comfort of company, it's a ghost of a memorynAnd I traded it long ago, yeah, for a songnnAnd I wander and drift and the scenery shiftsnMinutes quickly turn into daysnAnd I wish I could know how the ending will gonBut it's always moving further awaynnAnd these tiny black marksnnSuddenly, the stars explode and the sky's all full of hopesnI could fill 'em one by one, yeah, one by onenWith a flicker from my head, ripped out of a book I readnAnd they tried to show me that I'm never donennAnd I wander and drift and the scenery shiftsnMinutes quickly turn into daysnAnd I wish I could know how the ending will gonBut it's always moving further away
