It's not the spark that caused the fire

It was the air you breathed that fanned the flame

What you think you'll solve with violence

Will only spread like a disease

Until it all comes 'round again

Was John the only dreamer?

Sleep with one ear close to the ground

And wake up screaming

When we lay our cold weapons down

We'll wake up dreaming

Obsessions with self-preservation

Faded when I threw my fear away

It's not a thing you can imagine

You either lose your fear

Or spend your life with one foot in the grave

Is God the last romantic?

Sleep with one ear close to the ground

And wake up screaming

When we lay our cold weapons down

We'll wake up dreaming

Only love can turn this around

I wake up dreaming

Everything we've lost can be found

We'll wake up dreaming
