It's time for the crying to stop
Cause I love you
It's time for you to grow up
I want you
And I need you
There's a hole in your soul
Where your heart used to me
All the doors are locked
And you can't find the key
There's fish in the sky
And there's birds in the sea
Cause you want me
And you need me
You're drowning from all of the tears in the sky
It's a bad dream
You can't even close your eyes
It's a bad dream
A bad dream
It's time for the burn in the sky
Cause I'm hungry
It's time for you to let it die
You're lonely
All alone
Tigers in their tanks struggle to get free
Skinny little dogs barking up the wrong tree
Snakes in the grass learn their ABCs
And you need me
And you want me
You're drowning from all of the tears in the sky
It's a bad dream
You can't even close your eyes
It's a bad dream
A bad dream
Screaming from a voice inside
Running but you cannot find
A place
To hide
From the bad dream
There's a hole in your soul
Where your heart used to me
All the doors are locked
And you can't find the key
There's fish in the sky
And there's birds in the sea
And you hate me
But you need me
You're drowning from all of the tears in the sky
It's a bad dream
You can't even close your eyes
It's a bad dream
A bad dream
Screaming from the voice inside
Trying to find a place
Inside
To hide
From the bad dream
The bad, bad
Bad, bad
Bad, bad
Dream
Cause I love you
It's time for you to grow up
I want you
And I need you
Where your heart used to me
All the doors are locked
And you can't find the key
There's fish in the sky
And there's birds in the sea
Cause you want me
And you need me
It's a bad dream
You can't even close your eyes
It's a bad dream
A bad dream
Cause I'm hungry
It's time for you to let it die
You're lonely
All alone
Skinny little dogs barking up the wrong tree
Snakes in the grass learn their ABCs
And you need me
And you want me
It's a bad dream
You can't even close your eyes
It's a bad dream
A bad dream
Running but you cannot find
A place
To hide
From the bad dream
Where your heart used to me
All the doors are locked
And you can't find the key
There's fish in the sky
And there's birds in the sea
And you hate me
But you need me
It's a bad dream
You can't even close your eyes
It's a bad dream
A bad dream
Trying to find a place
Inside
To hide
From the bad dream
Bad, bad
Bad, bad

Ending a relationship and regretting it?
The song is about not being able to let go. Yes, possibly of a relationship. Who is singing on this song? It was weird to hear it on the website. Then again, I did have a different image of how this bad was.
This song is interesting. I really like it. Anyone else really like this song? How come everyone says it has something to do with letting go? I thought it was just a song about someone having a bad dream and this is the description of the bad dream.
LOL. True. LOLOLOL. Could very well be...
yup.
i think so
but then again Jakalopes song are really confusing and deep. If u truly feel her tho, its clear to you....
I am not sure if I'm ready to call Katie the next big thing. Personally, I don't think her involvement with the band is that big. She just helped give the lyrics a female perspective (along with her input and voice). So I'm not going to call her the next industrial god, although, if she steps up her game, she could be crowned the industrial goddess.
But I know for a fact that she didn't do the original lyrics. RAVE did that. Rave fyi, is Dave O.
She's Canadain, which is cool, cuz so am I. From Calgary.
March the 4th, Jakalope plays in Toronto! Lovely.
you live in Calgary? kool i live close to there. i havent really listened to this song yet, even though i have had the cd for about a month now. but the first time i bought jakalope, it didnt come with a jakalope cd but some band called the prodigy. now im trying to get rid of that cd by selling it to someone. luckly the second time i bought jakalope, it came with the right cd:)
I live in Toronto. Katie grew up in Calgary.
o. well thats still cool.
i live by Calgary too :)
