It's a tragedy, really, what the body can take The bruising, the swelling, the burning at the stake
The worrying contortions we'll do for a toke To brighten reality in a cloud of smoke
And I'm probably sorry, but I'm not allowed To doubt your existence, to think it out loud
But you know what I've dreamed, you know what I've seen Why are you able to take it from me?
If it all goes to play, and if it all falls in my hands If our written poets will duck at this door
They'll take me for a ride, for the ride of my life And finally show me what's on the other side
So I can know, so I can only know Is Osha the only home I will know?
I've let down my guards now, but all I hear is Settle down, little one, settle down
Settle down, little one The dirt rising in my chest is free now
But all I hear is Settle down, little one, settle down
Little one, you've got to recycle this dream
Oh-oh, oh-oh Oh-oh, oh-oh Oh-oh, oh-oh Oh-oh
Jaded and weighted by the regret on my breath Denied it's in my ears as I watch the world set
Alone amongst others in another world alone You can't map out in your mind the solitude of the sky
My shell gets heavier, it's taking its toll On my clothes, on my skin, on my mind filled with holes
And all I can do is roll the dice To avoid the dull thoughts that lead to a dull life
If it all goes to play, and if it all falls in my hands If our written poets will duck at this door
They'll take me for a ride, for the ride of my life And finally show me what's on the other side
So I can know, so I can only know Is our shell the only home we'll know?
I've let down my guards now But all I hear is
Settle down, little one Settle down, little one
The dirt rising in my chest is free now But all I hear is
Settle down, little one Settle down, little one
I've let down my guards now But all I hear is
Settle down, little one Settle down, little one
The dirt rising in my chest is free now But all I hear is
Settle down, little one Settle down, little one
Little one, you've got to recycle this dream
Well, excuse me, but I don't know what I've seen
Excuse me, but I don't know what I've seen
Excuse me, but I don't know what I've seen
