Lyrics

Hey kid, take my hand
If only for a while
And tell me all over again

You say noise, it's the best revenge
Noise, noise, noise
All you can say is noise
It's the best revenge
I know why you're dreaming
Noise, it's the best revenge
I know why you're dreaming, too

Hey kid, let my cry
And don't think any less of me
I've been hawking this song for too long

You say noise, it's the best revenge
There's a right way, there's a wrong way
And there's even a Victorian legal system
But noise, it's the best revenge
I know why you're dreaming
Noise, it's the best revenge
I know why you're dreaming, too
Too, too, too

Hey kid, let me die
A short walk into the dark sky
A final adventure, if only I wasn't so tired

And you say:
 "I know why you're dreaming
  I know why you're dreaming"
 
You say:
 "I know why you're dreaming
  I know why you're dreaming
 'Cause it's the only escape
  I know why you're dreaming
  'Cause it's the only escape, too"
