Off in the distance, lost in the background, unseen. Masked in illusion, shaded in by the colors, I breathe. I scream, [Yeah!] it tears my soul! Held, held for an instant, never found consistent! I reach with hands high! Cherish my thoughts of hope, built yesterday. Portray a picture, painted perfection, not a flaw. Shadowed, my dreams are fading! Left, empty canvas, gone, what has happened? Change, changing the colors, adding another! I reach with hands high! Cherish my thoughts of hope, built yesterday. Built yesterday! [Yeah!] I reach with hands high! Cherish my thoughts of hope! I scream! [Yeah!] Scream! [Yeah!] Don't give it away! [Yeah!] Cherish my thoughts of hope, built yesterday. Built yesterday! [Yeaah!]
