You say you want to know what's going on There's nothing happening in here, There's someone moving on the other side, But who it is is not too clear, The mystery is That there's this itch That somehow you just can't scratch, And somewhere A blaze is burning That wasn't started with a match
You say you don't like the darkness That's just the color that's around, You say you want to end up real high, So you don't have to touch the ground
Get down on your knees If you want to touch the sky, You want to see clearly now, You better cover up your eyes
Voices are talking in the grid, But I can't tell quite what they mean You tell me that this is how it goes, But I think that that's a bit obscene You say there's no difference between us The signal's the same And that there's no real kink The slate's been wiped clean And history won't repeat, But that's never been the way that I think Wear your anger proud and loud and deep, That way I know what I can trust, You grab at a hole And a hollow kiss and Convince yourself that you will never rust
I've got a wire in the back of my head, Got a wire in the back of my head
Get down on your knees If you want to touch the sky, You want to see clearly now You better poke out your eyes
