False Alarm

Visions of you dance through my head

Dark heroine of the books I have read

Pages torn out, I made up my own world

Deep in the dream, it's all built to last

You pull the plug, drain me down fast

Pop my ballon, I fell from a great high

And I'm tired of wasting life, searching out, going around

What became such a false alarm

'Cause I'm looking for the truth

Not some tired cheap cliché

False treasure in a shallow pond

Alright

Fireworks blew out the top of your head

Powder and spark drew me to bed

Drift with you there down a dark and frozen stream

I thought I'd found jewel of the Nile

You're just a shiny rock in my pile

So many stones, stuck in my shoes

And I know if there's enough, it could make up a road

That could lead me far from this town

'Cause I'm looking for the truth

Not some tired cheap cliché

False treasure in a shallow pond

And I'm tired of wasting life, searching out, going around

What became such a false alarm

Just a false alarm

Just a false alarm

Just a false alarm

A false alarm
