|
All the things you like |
|
Guided by their charms |
|
Behind them safety store |
|
Wrap your greedy arms around them all |
|
Sail, don't try to steer, just sail |
|
You can be hell of a force |
|
With the button to a broken man |
|
Because you know |
|
I'm impatient |
|
I've been hounded down before |
|
The diving bell keeps surfacing |
|
It doesn't ring anymore |
|
Did the little boy only get his orders from himself? |
|
Did the whole world revolve his middle class act? |
|
The girl next door hears voices in her head every night |
|
The mother's tears that he's bringing home trash from the pile |
|
You know I'm impatient |
|
I've been hounded down before |
|
The diving bell keeps surfacing |
|
It doesn't ring anymore |
|
And you know |
|
I'm impatient |
|
I've been hounded down before |
|
The diving bell keeps surfacing |
|
It doesn't ring anymore |
|
Wife still believes life settles like a stream of dust |
|
Through the beams you lose you underneath |
|
Did the little boy on his pedestal |
|
And the girl next once the voice is gone |
|
And did the whole world and the mothers tears |
|
Sink the sunshine on the back field? |
|
The grasping is hand is never full |
|
And the perfect life is just damaged goods |
|
And you should have talked and you should talk too |
|
Because in twenty years you'll be a mute |
