lyrics

You all think you’ve got it figured out
Planning your trips on cruise ships
Doing what you hate to pay the mortgage
I see you in the aisle choosing between beige and white
Oh why, can’t you try to see the full spectrum of light?

‘Cause you can’t see it like I see it
You can’t show what you’re feeling
Then you’ll give away the whole charade
And question what you believe in
Then come the day when on your grave
You wouldn’t be proud of what it says
That’ll never happen to me

There you go, you’re pulling in
To your driveway and perfect lawn
When you could’ve spent all that time
Mowing, and trimming, and put it in a song
I guess it’s just me who want to create beauty
Out of my heart and my thoughts
That’s where it all takes off

But you can’t see it like I see it
You can’t show what you’re feeling
Then you’ll give away the whole charade
And question what you believe in
Then come the day when on your grave
You wouldn’t be proud of what it says
That’ll never happen to me

Getting degrees at universities
Owing debt to the elite
Who wanna spread their own findings
So you can follow like little lemmings
Off a cliff ‘cause they insist
Nothing’s more real that science
It’s almost as bad as fools who file into church pews

‘Cause you can’t see it like I see it
You can’t show what you’re feeling
Then you’ll give away the whole charade
And question what you believe in
Then come the day when on your grave
