You've been following your compass Putting in your two cents Still feel like you're walking in a shoe box Mapping out a dead end
In the uncharted countries Out on ecstasy's borders You have seen the reflections
There's laughter in your cities Light bulbs in your attics Stand against the darkness of the outback The darkness of the road In the depths of your dreaming In the cracks in the ceiling You have seen the revealing
What if the diamond on your hand Was just a common ten cent ring? What if your ice castles melt down to water? What if your great walls remained As little more than cellophane At the end of the day?
When you move out Of the desert everything changes Back then you had no regard For all that you came with Now the sun is setting
On the unmoved faces Of your own congregation
What if the diamond on your hand Was just a common ten cent ring? What if your ice castles melt down to water? What if your great walls remained As little more than cellophane At the end of the day?
Still no rockabye Sing out your lullaby Cause you will never know why Your truth is your brother's lie
What if the diamond on your hand Was just a common ten cent ring? What if your ice castles melt down to water? What if all your matches Burn down to your fingertips
Without ever lighting a fire? What if your great walls remained As little more than cellophane At the end of the end of the End of the day?
