Clear Eye Clouded Mind Lyrics - The Stars Are Indifferent To Astronomy - Nada Surf

you're going to miss the wood 

everyone left the wood 

take what you can carry 

find a road and follow 

of course i'm supposed to work i 

come from the hills i 

find and eat food i 

try to protect i 

of course i like to laugh i 

look at the sky 

look in your eye 

all i feel is transition 

when do we get home? 

all i feel is transition 

now to be alone 

with a clear eye 

but a clouded mind 

you're going to miss the wood 

i come from the fen i 

i left the den 

the wind blows no good it 

tells of a change that 

might re-arrange 

we can't see the ground it's 

not where it was 

all i feel is transition 

when do we get home? 

all i feel is transition 

now to be alone 

with a clear eye 

but a clouded mind 

the stars are indifferent to astronomy 

and all that we think we know 

mars will salute your autonomy 

but he doesn't need to know 

all i feel is transition 

when do we get home? 

all i feel is transition 

now to be alone 

with a clear eye 

but a clouded mind 

no-one wants to live this fiction 

where didn't we go wrong? 

with a clear eye 

and a clouded mind 

the stars are indifferent to astronomy 

and all that we think we know 

mars will salute your autonomy 

but he doesn't need to know
