Back and forward, eyes on the prize Powder burns and lies Medusa on the strings And though you’re fading fast You thought you’d made it past The guards and the dogs Circuit lines and cogs Machines that make you wings Don’t run on dirty oil You’re getting stale
But sometimes you see those eyes in the sky There’s poison in the walls The revolution never called And now we’re all the same
For so long deep down and blue There’s nothing more that’s new And where’s that brilliant juice The flame that fired your heart That made you want to start Oh, oh let’s go And on with the show The snake’s up in the roof Then the click of hoof It’s time to fly
But sometimes you see those eyes in the sky There’s poison in the walls The revolution never called So don’t go outside like a child in the streets Hanging on by claws Another useless empty cause And now we’re all the same Skin
And though you’re fading fast Your dreamings’ free
But sometimes you see those eyes in the sky There’s poison in the walls The revolution never called So don’t go outside like a child in the streets Hanging on by claws Another useless empty cause And now we’re all the same Skin
