Caught in a wheel, stuck in a web
Burning in a fever that I can't forget
Maybe it's a lie, but I love delusion
Where the linings are silver and the sun's on a wave
I need to come to, but it can wait
Deny, deny, deny

Pour me a drink (Pour me a drink) , I'll sing you a song
Fix me up good 'til the hurting is gone (Long, long gone)
Play along just enough to keep reality sleeping
I don't care, just shut up, let me keep dreaming

What good's it gonna do you to bring me down to Earth?
If you're over me, is it really worth
Burning all my big ideas down to the ground?
Say goodbye tomorrow, honey, but for now

Pour me a drink (Pour me a drink) , I'll sing you a song
Fix me up good 'til the hurting is gone (Long, long gone)
Play along just enough to keep reality sleeping
I don't care, just shut up, let me keep dreaming

Don't wanna wake up
Just let me keep on dreaming

You have my permission to keep me around as long as you want
Keep stringing me along
You have my permission to keep me around as long as you want
Keep stringing me along, mm
Stringing me along
