The Henry Clay People This Ain't A Scene lyrics

We had dreams, they were better off dreams
So you kept them away from me
But the time will come, yes, the time will come and we'll need them
This ain't a scene, it's just a generation caught in between
It's just a generation caught in between
You said "Someday they'll need us"

This ain't a scene, it's just a place to be
We won't be settled down until we've seen everything
That we've payed to see
Well, I, I can't bank, I'm somebody's mind to change
I want to know right now how long you've spent being awake

Well, I was wiping all the sleep from my eyes
And you, you were talking about some other time
That you wish you could've been alive

This ain't a scene, it's just a place to be
This ain't a scene, it's just a place for you and me and we can meet

You said "I, I can't bank, I'm somebody's mind to change,
I need to know right now how long you've spent being awake"
But, before you invest, oh you should find a safer bet
And don't you celebrate now because you haven't found him yet

You said "Bury a hole*, it was better buried alive
Oh, we'll call you on the phone, to see if you made it back alive
Oh, well I, I can't bank, I'm somebody's mind to change
I need to know right now how long you've spent being awake
I need to know right now.
