Beneath suburban skies of blue
There is a nightmare coming true
He`s leaving home
Cause his daddy takes to drinking
And likes to beat him black and blue
At 13 he knows how to score
And he don`t feel much any more
As he lies on the floor
Of his mothers arms he`s dreaming
His memories are just a blur
Hazy daze, Living like there`s no tomorrow
Hazy daze, A perfect world no hurt no sorrow
Hazy daze, A shadow always walks behind you
Hazy daze, For you and I and the world we`re living in
Beneath the cold grey city skies
He`s standing 16 stories high
With the wind in his hair
He`s falling to his freedom
Into an angels arms this time
Hazy daze, Living like there`s no tomorrow
Hazy daze, A perfect world no hurt no sorrow
Hazy daze, A shadow always walks behind you
Hazy daze, For you and I and the world we`re living in
Sure as the sun will shine
These days are yours and mine
And we own these hazy
days
Beneath the cold suburban skies
He`s standing 16 stories high
