Lullaby - Thrice

What are we all living for

If nothing’s worth dying for tonight?

Your dreams are not enough, what I need is love

That’s worth laying down my life

Sing along, just like they taught us

It’s soothing your mind, this lullaby

No heaven above us

Just mile after mile of empty sky

No right or wrong, can you imagine?

A world where there’s no more need to cry

But no joy or passion

It seems that the price is much to high

But I am holding out for something real

And though you offered peace

What I really need comes to so much more

Your dreams are not enough

What I need is love that’s worth dying for

You say that you’re a dreamer, well I’m a dreamer too

But I won’t sing your lullaby

However well-intentioned, it’s neither good nor true

The pallid dream is just a lie

It’s just a lie!

But I am holding out for something real

And though you offered peace

What I really need comes to so much more

Your dreams are not enough

What I need is love that’s worth dying for

What are we all living for

If nothing’s worth dying for tonight?
