Everyone's looking, everyone hides
|
Everyone's telling everyone lies
|
We're changing the subject, we're turning away
|
Away from the heart of it all
|
|
You say you are happy, do you think this is fun?
|
Well, it's only a firefly to the light of the sun
|
You say this is living, you feel so alive
|
Well, you know everything dies
|
|
Even my wonder, even my fear
|
Only amount to a couple of tears
|
There is a rhythm, it's near and it's far
|
It flows through the heart of us
|
|
Welcome to another day
|
It don't seem that different 'cause nothing has changed
|
Try to remember, try to remember
|
When we were just running in place
|
|
Reasons for living, never come cheap
|
But even your best ones can put me to sleep
|
What I am saying or trying to say
|
Is that there must be a better way
|
|
Even my wonder, even my fear
|
Only amount to a couple of tears
|
There is a rhythm, it's near and it's far
|
It flows through the heart of us
|
|
It's already in you, it's already there
|
You may disagree but I don't really care
|
Did you ever find out, did you ever find out
|
What's at the heart of us?
|
Did you ever find out, did you ever find out
|
What's at the heart?
|
|
Tell me all your wildest dreams
|
You don't really care, you don't know what they mean
|
Raiding the closets, skeleton keys
|
You know it's easier than you think
|
|
Even my wonder, even my fear
|
Only amount to a couple of tears
|
There is a rhythm, it's near and it's far
|
It flows through the heart of us
|
|
Reasons for living are all very fine
|
Leaving me cold though they're not really mine
|
Did you ever find out, did you ever find out
|
What's at the heart of us?
|
I don't know, I don't know
|
