Real Feel 105°

The body keeps the score, passing out on the floor

As the party raged on, the fireplace roared

While the snow fell outside on the salt and the ice

Felt my will to live slippin' away

And then, you came along, wanted help with a song

Wanna peek through the curtains, to see how it's done

We're all make-believe gods like the Wizard of Oz

"Name the animals, let there be light"

Growin' old and confused, beauty's wasted on youth

There's too much to redact, there's too much to include

I hate the moon, but I'd take it from you

I want anything you have to give

Used to wait around for a handout

Pleadin' in the street

But you're all that I beg for now

Hot in L.A. tonight, real feel 105º

If the grid don't give out, maybe we will survive

I can tell where you've been from the look in your eyes

Watch your mind as it wanders away

I was selfish and cruel to have put that on you

Where you saw a rope swing, I saw a noose

There's too much to untangle to get to the truth

I was thinkin' what I just couldn't say

My longing used to know no bounds

Always incomplete

But you're all that I'm wanting now

You don't have to explain, no, nothing has changed

Come back to me, I still feel the same

Dry lightning strikes, there's no one to blame

'Cause all that we were

Will always remain

I'm so tired of all this light and sound

Asleep on my feet

You're all that I dream of now

Come over here, lay back down

You're all that I dream of
