Reaching Out - Matthew Sweet

Youve counted every star

That you could imagine

Broken when everyone took you for a fool

It gave you a reason

To find something strong enough to feel

Youre reaching out (reaching out)

Youre reaching out (reaching out)

Youre reaching out

Beaten by a child

You cant even know when

Now you can never be free from what was done

You cant even hate them

Youll find something big enough to steal

Youre reaching out (reaching out)

Youre reaching out (reaching out)

Youre reaching out

And if I cant know you

All my dreams are through

Every waking hour is filled with lead

Im dead

Ive counted every star

That you could imagine

Broken when everyone took me for a fool

It gave me a reason

To find something strong enough to feel

Youre reaching out (reaching out)

Youre reaching out (reaching out)

Youre reaching out

And if I cant know you

All my dreams are through

Every waking hour is filled with lead

Im dead

Im dead
