In the moment I was losing my head and reading texts I was losing my head and I wasn't Reaching forward I was already there Reading too much and losing my head This information caused a cut and a line Now I'm a numb and a gut Reading too much, it's so nice Printed smaller than the ants in the grass I'll have to put it away In the moment am I fixed to be read And words to be said and food to be fed But I won't be there I'll be clutching on the megaphone pointed at my head But you'll be there, would you kindly Scream this word for words so loud and clear I can remember it all instantly if I tell you If the feeling drops out of your voice Would you kindly pick it up This is how I go at times Just standing by the book tonight This is how I go at times But I don't need a book We're talking all this talking Ships we're talking, seas we're talking Everything you need You should be working now Not only asking how In the world that's where you'll be Don't suspect you will be thinking When the brain is dead And the mind has taken over This is a scheme, this is not a game Where have you been? Are you with us? Can you hear us? Got the megaphone pointed at you This is how I go at times Just standing by the book tonight This is how I go at times I don't need a book This is how I go at times Just standing by the book tonight This is how I go at times But I don't need a book And I'm pulling out a river in my head And I'm losing my head Now I'm reaching for what I was holding And I'm pulling out a river in my head And I'm losing my head Just standing by the book tonight *
