In the middle of the day my eyes see different things
I'm carried by clouds, mesmerized by those yellow rings
All kinds of things, I see everything
They simply fade back
Just in case I was off track
Did that blue really turn black?
My eyes play tricks
Sometimes I run out of words for this existence
But some days, the word spray has no resistance
In the middle of the day
I'm at a loss for words
In the middle of the day
I'm at a loss for words
Someone paralyzed this town
Or maybe it's still going strong and I'm the one who keeps slowing down If
I ever wanted to run for the door it's now
While Mike's spinning this around
Eventually we'll all get up to fight the force that keeps us stuck to the
ground
You could make it with me if we leave right now
I don't wanna drown.
So tell me what's wrong with your legs?
I've seen you runnin around
Maybe you're just like me
You get yourself stuck on the wrong side of town
Baby, get out of that house and burn it down
Get out of that house and burn it down
You once said long ago
That I was blessed, and now I know
I have a song and I have a fight
A fight for knowledge and a constant fight for the light
I love to live, but livin's long
We need the power from our songs to kiss our eyes,
Help us fly, we have to try
We have to try
It's funny how we stay in bed
When the light's come on we wake up dead
Unaware of our masterpiece
Jump up stumblin' and our dreams they cease
So keep on dreamin' through the day
It's the only way, it's the only way
To turn us back on
Don't try and fight the light
