All the things you like Guided by their charms Behind them safety store Wrap your greedy arms around them all
Sail, don't try to steer, just sail You can be hell of a force With the button to a broken man
Because you know I'm impatient I've been hounded down before The diving bell keeps surfacing It doesn't ring anymore
Did the little boy only get his orders from himself? Did the whole world revolve his middle class act? The girl next door hears voices in her head every night The mother's tears that he's bringing home trash from the pile
You know I'm impatient I've been hounded down before The diving bell keeps surfacing It doesn't ring anymore
And you know I'm impatient I've been hounded down before The diving bell keeps surfacing It doesn't ring anymore
Wife still believes life settles like a stream of dust Through the beams you lose you underneath
Did the little boy on his pedestal And the girl next once the voice is gone And did the whole world and the mothers tears Sink the sunshine on the back field?
The grasping is hand is never full And the perfect life is just damaged goods And you should have talked and you should talk too Because in twenty years you'll be a mute
