Cover art for Dreams Old Men Dream lyrics by Cold War Kids

Thought I was laying in the gutter In milk cartons and bones, But I was standing on a mountin top Looking over your homes Thought I was laying my garden With my hands deep in soil But I was there on an island Shooting flares at your boat

Thought I was soothing like a violin Confessing new rain But I was piping like a trumpet Frantic for fame, Thought I was built like a buildings built Iron concrete and stone I realize I’m just a hack actor Finished playing my role

Your reading my thoughts Dreams old men dream Its just like when we were kids We’d lay around wondering We try to listen to what they say

Thought I was writing for a hundred hours Looking straight into me But I was reading on the news paper obituaries Thought I was nervous like a mailman Reading your letters dear But I was at our anniversary toasting 30 years

Your reading my thoughts Dreams old men dream Its just like when we were kids We’d lay around wondering We try to listen to what they say

We try to listen to what they say

Push my piano outside I don’t care, I don’t care Beneath the meteor black sky I don’t care, I don’t care The neighbours will complain Let them stare, let them stare Who knows where the time goes I don’t care, I don’t care

What would you think of me if I told you. I haven’t slept in weeks.

these are the right lyrics! this is definetly my favourite song from loyalty to loyalty!:)
