everybody cares, everybody understands
|
yes everybody cares about you
|
yeah and whether or not you want them to
|
it's a chemical embrace that kicks you in the head
|
to a pure synthetic sympathy that infuriates you totally
|
and a quiet lie that makes you wanna scream and shout
|
so here I lay dreaming looking at the brilliant sun
|
raining it's guiding light upon everyone
|
for a moment's rest you can lean against the banister
|
after running upstairs again and again from wherever they came to fix you in
|
but always fear city's finest follow right behind
|
you got a pretty vision in your head
|
a pencil full of poison lead
|
and a sickened smile illegal in every town
|
so here I lay dreaming looking at the brilliant sun
|
raining its guiding light upon everyone
|
here I lay dreaming looking at the brilliant sun
|
raining its guiding light upon everyone
|
you say you mean well, you don't know what you mean
|
fucking out to stay the hell away from things you know nothing about
|
|
