lyrics

So think that the world is spinning too fast like a horse that tries to shake you off of its back. So you sit alone in your darkened room, where you go near no-one, no-one goes near you. The mice wait patiently for the men to die off, and all the people are all just moths, flying into flames and then forgetting. Lifetimes not learning the simplest lessons. But O, you make such a hard little fist for someone who does not even exist. I never thought that you'd turn out to be such a pessimist. When you open your eyes and come into the light, you will be warm and we will be holding you tight. Chasing bits of paper around and the missiles fly up and the missiles come down. And the only thing there is enough of is the dirt that we all will become. And I was born on the edge of a cliff, on the edge of a century. I wouldn't expect you to listen to somebody like me. But if you sleep you will not see the swifts in the sky. Do you think that you want to give this a try? When you open your eyes and come into the light, you will be warm and we will be holding you tight.
