Falling snowflakes, melting in the sun
|
Dead end sweepstakes, heaven's growing numb
|
Weekend sandman, stealing innocence
|
Conscious dreaming last line of defense
|
|
Whey do we walk backwards down a road that never ends
|
Not knowing where we're going
|
Just seeing where we've been
|
Can't find no direction though we try hard to pretend
|
That we're not walking backwards but we are again and again
|
|
Is it too late to change?
|
Velvet roses, blinded by the heat
|
Teenage grownups passing on their painted legacies
|
|
Why do we walk backwards down a road that never ends
|
Not knowing where we're going
|
Just seeing where we've been
|
Can't find no direction though we try hard to pretend
|
That we're not walking backwards but we are, again and again and again
|
Is it too late to change?
|
Ivory castles all fall down
|
False religions being crowned
|
Politicians tied and bound
|
We have to make a stand today, the time has come for us to change
|
|
Whey do we walk backwards down a road that never ends
|
Not knowing where we're going
|
Just seeing where we've been
|
Can't find no direction though we try hard to pretend
|
That we're not walking backwards but we are again and again and again
|
