Verse 1
Hey there you, way out there in the distance
can you here me? Are you there?
I know it's late so please forgive my persistance
but I'm hanging, do you care?
So lay back
call of the attack
Cause if you look deep dreams are nothing that I lack
And all I seek
is a final chance to speak
And I would let the whole thing keep---
If I could just sleep
Verse 2
Hey there you, way out there could you show me
just a signal, or a sign?
That after all, all these years that you've known me
that I'm not just, killing time.
So lay back
call off the attack
Cause if you look deep dreams are nothing that I lack
And all I seek
is a final chance to speak
And I would let the whole thing keep---
If I could just sleep
And as I lay there late at night
building castles in the air
All those alibis and all those little lies
then I look inside and pray that I don't care....
I don't care
I don't care
Hey there you, way out there in the distance....

That's about it. If I've butchered the song or lyrics in any
way, I'm sorry. This is a really cool song to sit around and
play. I hope someone appreciates this tab, and the band.
Long live Criss! He's a hell of a player!
