I've had this dream before, it's just the ghost of the once was.
A fool just like before, the same exact sad outcome.
I've meant my enemy and it seems we tried to work it out.
You're just the ghost of the once was.
But the stars aren't far enough for you to grab them.
Right out of the sky, there ain't no doubt about it.
You ain't no child trying to drive a fast car, no.
You ain't no friend of mine.
Nobody seems to fear the truth more than me.
It seems I have a darkness.
But I can leave it all behind if you let me.
Only if you let me, only if you let me.
So lay it on me, so lay it on me.
It seems you're so scared of taking chances I'm not.
So lay it on me, so lay it.
I feel the rain!
Reoccuring dreams, pulling out my teeth,
In a crowded white room.
I try to run or yell, this is my Hell.
My legs won't move.
I've had this dream before, it's just the ghost of the once was.
A fool just like before, the same exact sad outcome.
I've had this dream before,
You're just the ghost of the once was.
But the stars aren't far enough for you to grab them.
Right out of the sky, there ain't no doubt about it.
You ain't no child trying to drive a fast car, no.
You ain't no friend of mine.
Nobody seems to fear the truth more than me.
It seems I have a darkness.
But I can leave it all behind if you let me.
Only if you let me, only if you let me.
All this time, I've been waiting to let you go...
All this time, I've been waiting to let you go...
All this time, I've been waiting to let you go...
All this time, I've been waiting to let you go...
So lay it on me, so lay it on me.
It seems you're so scared of taking chances I'm not.
So lay it on me, so lay it.
I feel the rain!
A fool just like before, the same exact sad outcome.
I've meant my enemy and it seems we tried to work it out.
You're just the ghost of the once was.
But the stars aren't far enough for you to grab them.
Right out of the sky, there ain't no doubt about it.
You ain't no child trying to drive a fast car, no.
You ain't no friend of mine.
Nobody seems to fear the truth more than me.
It seems I have a darkness.
But I can leave it all behind if you let me.
Only if you let me, only if you let me.
So lay it on me, so lay it on me.
It seems you're so scared of taking chances I'm not.
So lay it on me, so lay it.
I feel the rain!
Reoccuring dreams, pulling out my teeth,

All this time, I've been waiting to let you go...
All this time, I've been waiting to let you go...
So lay it on me, so lay it on me.
It seems you're so scared of taking chances I'm not.
So lay it on me, so lay it.
I feel the rain!

This song seems to me to be about a man who as a child grew up believing naively that the world would be a great place and if he made any enemies along the way, he dreamed they'd work it out eventually. Now that he's grown up he sees the world for how it truly is. There's also a figure in his life who he grew up envying and looking up to and he realizes the truth, that this person is a lame excuse for a human being (a yellow king) & not someone to idolize. Now he has a darkness growing inside him now seeing the world for what it truly is.
