Name That Tune

How 'bout this one:

You can live in this illusion
You can choose to believe
You keep looking but you can't find the woods
While you're hiding in the trees
What if everything around you
Isn't quite as it seems?
What if the world you used to know
Is an elaborate dream?
sirmyk, we are supposed to wait for confirmation of an answer before assuming we are correct and posting the next lyric. if ABC confirms your answer then your lyric is next on the board, OK?
 
Mom and Daddy stayed up too late last night / I guess they got carried away in the Christmas candlelight
Well, it's either Rich Mullins, or Rich Mullins plagiarized the lyrics. Game on.
 
Is it "Game On" or "Game Dead".

Sirmyk, I think you need to post a strong hint or else post lyrics to a different song.

SirMyk...

I think it's NiN (Nine-Inch Nails)?

Right where you belong?
Leckert, go ahead and post the next set of lyrics so we can keep this topic moving. Seems like sirmyk has taken a sabatical.
 
I see a girl in the night
with a baby in her hand
under an old street light
near a garbage can

she puts the kid away
and goes to get a hit
she hates her life
and what she's done to it

another child that'll never go to school
never get to fall in love
never get to be cool...

The sabatical's over. Leckert was right.
 
It was Kinky Afro by The Happy Mondays.

Someone else can post a lyric in my place, this game isn't really working for me...
 
Occlith.....go ahead and post a lyric. The object is to post something that someone will recognize and not make it to difficult.

Ok, in the spirit of Christmas I will post a lyric: :)

First comes the stocking of little Nell
Oh, dear Santa, fill it well
Give her a dolly that laughs and cries
One that will open and shut her eyes

Ho ho ho, who wouldn't go
Up on the rooftop...

We sang this in grade school, but I can't remember the proper title..Seems like it was a Johnny Marks song too..am I close? Give any cigars to the teacher...

No cigar, it is bad for your health. But you were close enough and it is your go. :)

Up on the housetop reindeer pause
Out jumps good old Santa Claus
Down through the chimney with lots of toys
All for the little ones, Christmas joys
Ho, ho ho! Who wouldn't go? Ho, ho ho! Who wouldn't go?

Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with old Saint Nick

First comes the stocking of little Nell
Oh, dear Santa fill it well
Give her a dolly that laughs and cries
One that will open and shut her eyes
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go? Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?

Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with old Saint Nick

Next comes the stocking of little Will
Oh, just see what a glorious fill
Here is a hammer and lots of tacks
Also a ball and a whip that cracks
Ho, ho ho! Who wouldn't go? Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?

Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with old Saint Nick
 
That's ok, I don't smoke!

Try this:
I don't think Santa Claus will mind, do you?
He won't have to use our dirty chimney flue
Just bring him through the front door,
that's the easy thing to do
