If I could, then I'd
Shrink the world tonight
So that I would find
You and me inside
A life in love, a picture of a place I'm nowhere near
A bleeding heart, a good head start to anywhere but here
Just let me out; please, let me out before I turn into
A box of things reminding me how much I'm missing you (I am missing you)
If I could then I'd
Shrink the world tonight
So that I would find
You and me inside
Of the last good scene
A film that changes things
Breaks us, makes us sing
Leaves us wondering
And through the wall my fist you call, but then you always run
So what's it for, the love and war? It's only fair for some
You saved the girl, you saved the world; well, that's not true it seems
A lesson learned, speak out of turn; I bite my tongue, it bleeds (bite my tongue it bleeds)
If I could then I'd
Shrink the world tonight
So that I would find
You and me inside
Of the last good scene
A film that changes things
Breaks us, makes us sing
Leaves us wondering
Are you wondering?
If I could then I'd
Shrink the world tonight
So that I would find
You and me inside
Of the last good scene
A film that changes things
Breaks us, makes us sing
Leaves us wondering
If I could
Shrink the world tonight...
If I could
Shrink the world tonight...
Shrink the world tonight
So that I would find
You and me inside
A life in love, a picture of a place I'm nowhere near
A bleeding heart, a good head start to anywhere but here
Just let me out; please, let me out before I turn into
A box of things reminding me how much I'm missing you (I am missing you)
If I could then I'd
Shrink the world tonight
So that I would find
You and me inside
Of the last good scene
A film that changes things
Breaks us, makes us sing
Leaves us wondering
And through the wall my fist you call, but then you always run
So what's it for, the love and war? It's only fair for some
You saved the girl, you saved the world; well, that's not true it seems
A lesson learned, speak out of turn; I bite my tongue, it bleeds (bite my tongue it bleeds)
If I could then I'd
Shrink the world tonight
So that I would find
You and me inside
Of the last good scene
A film that changes things
Breaks us, makes us sing
Leaves us wondering
Are you wondering?
If I could then I'd
Shrink the world tonight
So that I would find
You and me inside
Of the last good scene
A film that changes things
Breaks us, makes us sing
Leaves us wondering
If I could
Shrink the world tonight...
If I could
Shrink the world tonight...

"You save the girl, you save the world"
But THIS totally reminds me of Heroes,too.Its about Heroes.This sentence proofs it :D cant be metaphorical.im sure :D
Heroes roxx!
Although this isnt as obvious, it could still very well be about Heroes and I think it is as well, esp after reading your post
A life of love
A picture of a place I'm nowhere near
A bleeding heart
A good head start to anywhere but here
- A picture of a place I'm nowhere near reminds me of when Clare's mother takes a picture of Clare to remember her by and then leaves for Mexico (A good head start to anywhere but here.)
Just let me out
Please let me out
Before I turn into
A box of things
Reminding me how much I'm missing you
(I am missing you)
- reminds me of when Clare was with the Petrellis and she didn't think she'd ever see her father again. Or possibly how much her mother would miss her, but more likely her and her father.
You save the girl, you save the world
Well, that's not true, it seems
A lesson learned
Speak out of turn
- save the cheerleader save the world, it doesn't really seem like tha. since in the 2nd season, sylar could have killed adam instead. and in the first season it wasn't always clear why clare needed saving.
speak out of turn - nathan said 'am i speaking out of turn?' to clare's mother when they were on the phone. or something.
but really, all that shows is that i'm just majorly obsessed with Heroes. hahaha.
this ended up being one of my favorite songs on the album, although i didn't like it at first.
obviously someone wants out of their current situation....
I love this song, one of my absolute faves by the guys! great CD too
