Intro

My dream girl don't exist

At the age of five she slit her wrists

She didn't know that I'd be hanging around

So her parents buried her in the ground

And this day I can still hear the sound

Of her life in outerspace

My dream girl don't exist

It's just you and I and this TV

And this illness seems to feel so strange

Like a henchman that's about to hang

The moon up like a ball and chain

instead it stands ablaze

And the wait is waiting ah

Build a world so real and strong

My dream girl don't exist

Just a photograph and a history book

And I believe she had a voice and name

Three children on the coast of Maine

Her life was in a hurricane

Of love and real embrace

My dream girl don't exist

At the age of five she slit her wrists

She didn't know that I'd be hanging around

So one day she took a stroll to town

And walked in front of a Greyhound bound

For New York Central staaaaaaaaate

And the wait is waiting ah

And the wait is waiting ah

Build a world so real and stroonnng

She goes and now she knows she'll never be afraid
