Cryptomnesia

No more wasting time, wasting time, wasting, wasting time Give us a break, we were only kids Spent it all on boys, girls, toys, cars, fights at bars Cause I guess that's just what our parents did So how do you expect a happy end? The life you chose can still be turned on its head Did you see the signs? See the signs? Signs? See the signs? I blew right through them, they ticket me And did you pay the fine? Pay the fine? Fine, I'll pay the fine I guess if that's what they want from me So now you see what we've become? While heaven watches from the barbwire gate of the sun I know that everyday my mind tilts and it whirls round a gold mine But now didn't they say just to look the other way and keep our heads down? I can't stand it anymore life has turned to a bore but it's all fine Cause I have seen the other side of the lake And keep on asking why, asking why, asking, asking why Why don't they tell us what we need to hear? All they do is lie, all is lies, don't fall for their lies I can't believe that nobody sees them Stare into the barrel of a gun But I guess it's cause they just brainwash everyone I know that everyday my mind tilts and it whirls round a gold mine But now didn't they say just to look the other way and keep our heads down? I can't stand it anymore life has turned to a bore but it's all fine Cause I have seen the other side now And I can't wait to show you how Cause everything will be just fine And you just keep doing your time Forgive me when I cross that line Believe me when you hear me say I'm sure that everything is just inside the door now At the end of the week we all crowd in a herd on the dance floor Drinking, pissing away all the debt that we slave so fucking hard for Now my knees are getting weak so I'll turn the other cheek And pretend I'm perfectly fine, stop asking me these things I know that everyday my mind tilts and it whirls round a gold mine But now didn't they say just to look the other way and keep our heads down? I can't stand it anymore life has turned to a bore but it's all fine Cause I have seen the other side of the lake And I can say this side just as great
