And I keep holding on to yesterday. I keep holding on enough to say. That I'm wrong. . I keep thinking that I'm lonely. But it's only missing you inside.
Nothing's complete. Before every chain is linked. And your mind wasn't meant. To be sold out in the street. You are wearing a disguise. It reveals you when you cry.
Hurry up, get along, be on your way. And make sure that your certain. It's not the wrong day. Punctual people are lost in their plight. To become unprecedented when they arrive.
Leaping quick on leopard's back. I face the brunt of his attack. In the land of nod i'm king. Until the alarm clock rings. . Stepping out from safety's door.
When you're in the shape I'm in. It's tellin' me somethin'. It's givin' me warning. It's gotta be rough, man. When you're in the shape I'm in. From all of your lies.
I'm 'bout ready for Camarillo. My head is goin' fast. I'm like some ship out on the ragin' sea. That's losin' its mainmast. Can't find my direction. My thoughts are so confused.
Pale to the mountains my existence seems. Sad as the cry of my unanswered dreams. Long have I waited for time to make clear. All of the reasons that I must be here.
My mama don't understand. She's impossible to the core. Now she says that she's gettin' married. He's a friend of a friend of the boy next door. . He's got all of the best intentions.
The clock gets to be such a bore. What'cha livin' for. . Though I can't explain, being sane's. Just a dreary chore. I'd like to go fly past mountains.
She got a heart of steel. She don't care how I feel. But nothin' warms the chill. When I'm livin' on my own. She keep my mind in worry. She left my vision blurry.
I've heard them say the war is over. But here am I, out flyin' again. Who knows if I'm wrong or right?. But when time has ended this flight. This cone of life will be at an end.
Sometimes I feel. That we've been herded like sheep. We've been led out like lambs to the slaughter. And empty souls. Have kept the downtrodden down. And took the best and left us the fodder.
Well I keep holdin' on to yesterday. I keep holdin' on enough to say. That I'm wrong. . I keep thinkin'that I'm lonely. But it's only missing you inside.
All this time. All this worry. All this way to go. For nothin'. What's the sense. Of the hurry?. You tell me. If you sense somethin'. I dreamed a lot when I was younger.
Someone talks about a road. At the end find life's gold. . I went out to get a drink of water. But I saw an ocean far away. I thought of how much beyond awaits me.
Of man's progress I don't give a hoot. And man's estrangements of nature's arrangements. Has given cause for my heartbreak to boot. . The simple life, though filled with strife.
