Walking like a one man army, fighting with the shadows in your head. Living out the same old moment knowing you’d be better off instead if you could only… Say what you need to say. Even if your hands are shaking and your faith is broken, even as the eyes are closing do it with a heart wide open. Say what you need to say.
—This town is colder now, I think it’s sick of us. It’s time to make our move, I’m shaking off the rust. I’ve got my heart set on anywhere but here. I’m staring down myself, counting up the years. Stop and stare. I think I’m moving but I go nowhere. Yeah, I know that everyone gets scared but I’ve become what I can’t be.
—Sin, sin, sin. Look where we’ve been and where we are tonight. Hate the sin not the sinner. I’m just after a glimmer of love and light deep inside.
—Or I should I just get along with myself; I never did get along with everybody else. I’ve been trying hard to do what’s right but you know I could stay here all night and watch the clouds fall from the sky. This river is wild.
—I have arrived and this time you should believe the hype. I listened to everyone now I know that everyone was right. I’ll be there for you as long as it works for me. I play a game, it’s called insincerity.
—That’s me in the corner, that’s me in the spotlight; I’m losing my religion trying to keep up with you. And I don’t know if I can do it. Oh no, I’ve said too much; i haven’t said enough.
—And no one learned from your mistakes. We let our profits go to waste. All that’s left, in any case, is advertising space.
—All I know is everything is not as it’s sold; but the more I grow the less I know. And I have lived so many lives though I’m not old. And the more I see, the less I grow, the fewer the seeds the more I sow.
—Yeah we walk through the doors, so accusing their eyes, like they have any right at all to criticize. Hypocrites, you’re all here for the very same reason. ‘Cause you can’t jump the track, we’re like cars on a cable and life’s like an hourglass glued to the table. No one can find the rewind button, girl so cradle your head in your hands and breathe… just breathe.
