lyrics

There goes another piece of me
falling out on the road
pieces that have lived on me
weighing a heavy load

Feeling like a butterfly
remembering where he stayed
things are just as I recall them
am I all that's changed?

Go on and make yourself useful
Instead of tearing me down
you are so disconnected
you are taking the crown

All I want is to see his shape
but I see no beauty through this dreadful crowd
I want to follow in a different way
where a few less fakers are allowed
and the strange convictions are a little less loud

Placing your post, you make your case
for the insiders of the inside
tunnel-vision cleverness will only end your ride

Make yourself useful
instead of splitting the town
you are so disconnected
you are bringing us down
you are bringing us down

All I want is to see his shape
but I see no beauty through this dreadful crowd
I want to follow in a different way
where a few less fakers are allowed
and the strange convictions are a little less loud

I am on your side
but I'm not satisfied
I am on your side
start slowing down your stride

I know that our opinions place
you and I as one
that kind of man, too critical
is old and overdone

but the thing that sets us apart
and places me on the wire
I will not contain the infinite
to fit within my desire.
