In the air the tension lingers
Evident in pointing fingers
From the rad the steam it rises
In this tomb of no surprises
Never knowing what they mean
Not quite in tune with their schemes
Suspect me of an empty shell?
Man I guess it's just as well
Want to become you
Sweet perfection, enchanted youth
I'll lose the weight
of all my worries, I'll be the truth
I'll seek the source
Plant the seed and let it run it's course
Paranoia is just like ants
and conversation makes them dance
around our feet like hungry friends
So watch your step and just pretend
All that glitters is really gold
and we love all we are sold
and if there's any pain inside
Paint on a smile and let it slide
Through the whispers
Across the haze
Just like a mouse
Searching wild in a maze
I see you from across the room
I see you
Early morning light it grows
Casting down on pure white snow
Quietly we walk back home
Like Buffalo, our minds they roam
Want to become you
Sweet perfection, enchanted youth
I'll lose the weight
of all my worries, I'll be the truth
I'll seek the source
Plant the seed and let it run it's course |
