The devil's in the dreaming He tells you I'm not sleeping in my hotel room alone With
nothing to believe in You dive into the traffic rising up And it's so quiet You're
surprised And then you wake For all the things you're losing You might as well
resign yourself to try and make a change I'm going down to Hollywood They're gonna
make a movie from the things that they find crawling round my brain I wish I was a
girl so that you could believe me And I could shake this static everytime I try to
sleep I wish for all the world that I could say, "Hey Elizabeth, you know, I'm doing
alright these days." The devil's in the dreaming You see yourself descending from a
building to the ground You watch the sky receding You spin to see the traffic rising
up And it's so quiet You're surprised And then you wake For all the things I'm losing
I might as well resign myself to try and make a change But I'm going down to
Hollywood They're gonna make a movie from the things that they find crawling round
my brain I wish I was a girl so that you could believe me And I could shake this
static every time I try to sleep I wish for all the world that I could say, "Hey
Elizabeth, you know, I'm doing alright these days." In one of these dreams, you
forgive me It makes me think of the bad decisions that keep you at home How could
anyone else have changed? All these wrong conclusions that leave you alone How could
everyone rearrange? How could everyone else have changed? What I see I believe For
all the things I'm losing I might as well resign myself to try and make a change
Well, I'm going down to Hollywood They're gonna make a movie from the things that
they find crawling around my brain I wish I was a girl so that you could believe me
And I could shake this static everytime I try to sleep I wish for all the world that
I could say, "Hey Elizabeth, you know, I'm doing alright these days." But I can't
sleep at night
