Lose You In The Crowd
Was I put here for a reason
I thought there was a master plan
I thought I was a human being
And I thought I was your man

I'm always looking for the answers
They're always just outside our reach
It pulls us up onto the altar
And spits us out into the street

I wish we could stay frozen in this moment
So you and I could drink up this night
For it's over in the blink of an eye

Have you come here for a reason?
Are you murders in disguise?
Is there something I'm not seeing
That will lead to our demise?

The forces out there are relentless
They will pull us apart and run us down
I wanna break across the fences
Before I lose you in the crowd

And I wish we could stay frozen in this moment
So you and I could drink up this night
For it's over in the blink of an eye
Eye, a la lie, lie la lie
Eye, a la lie, lie la lie
Let us not spend the rest of our days trying to make sense
Let's waste all our time on the truly sublime
Let's get a message to our friends
Tell 'em I will remember this storied ground
I'll beat the drum, I'll make you proud

And we could be frozen in this moment
And you and I could drink up this night
For it's over in the blink of an eye
A la la, lie la lie
Eye, a la lie, lie la lie

Now, was I put here for a reason
I thought there was a master plan
I thought I was a human being
And I thought I was your man
And I thought I was your man

Before we waste another minute
Before we draw another breath
Why can't we finally just admit it?
Put our restless souls to bed

We'll put 'em out of the heavens and into this world
He'll be lighting our way from this day forward
And we could be frozen in this moment
For you and I could drink up this night
For it's over in the blink of an eye
A la lie, lie la lie
Eye, a la lie, lie la lie
Eye, a la la, lie la lie lie
Eye, a la la, lie la lie
