Filth & Dreams

You're my gilmmer of hope

In a time filled with doubt

Sprinkle soul soothing words

On my imperfect world

Like only an angel could

Can't come clean from the past

Or your dreams pay the cost

In the cold light of day

When your joy slips away

You're still a part of me

When will I give you up completely

Still wishing from the other side

(Chorus)

How can you smile so sweetly

Why do I still believe in filth and dreams

Filth and dreams

In the depths of your mind

There's a truth you can't hide

Happiness can't be gained

Till you've felt hurt and shame

Until you've suffered enough

Life's a wound that won't heal

No-one knows what you feel

In the cold light of day

When the joy slips away

You're still a part of me

I said it may sound mean

But where there's dirt there are dreams

And they'll disappear as soon as you wipe away your

tears

And wash your sadness clean, hey yeah

This mess we're in is where they joy begins

And on the road that lies ahead lies your future

happiness

And all the hope in your heart, yeah

Hey you

Talking sideways and looking me in the eye

How can you smile so sweetly

Why do I still believe in filth and dreams

Filth and dreams

Filth and dreams

Filth and dreams

Filth and dreams

Filth and dreams

Filth and dreams
