I see what other men have seen:
Dreams we hope have meaning if put under scrutiny
That are useful
At least to some degree
There’s something to that scene
Oh my
Revealed in time
I read what better men have said
To hopefully improve my views if only to impress
I will admit that much of what I read
Is wasted on my head
Cause I can’t get past the bottom line
While I’ve never been a failure I’ve never won awards
Got time for one more try but in a minute I’ll be gone
Oh a masticated question somehow lingers on
Away a while, a way in time
Where a blue-eyed fool can see for miles
I breathe the same air we all do
Still we differ even in potential points of view
It is hard directing what to do
With logos as our tool
But I’ll get off my ass and try
While our nature is explosive I’m very slow to start
Silencing the din that builds crescendos in my heart
Oh the answer was provided, taken thoroughly apart
Away a while, a way in time
Where a blue-eyed fool can see for miles
And I been walking a steady pace in life
But I am more uncertain than contrite
I still got time to decide
Upon a sight of a certain kind
While I’ve never been a failure I’ve never won awards
Got time for one more try but in a minute I’ll be gone
Oh the answers is corroded but somehow lingers on
Away a while, a way in time
Where did I go wrong that I like being alone?
I haven’t been here long
But if you wait a minute I’ll be gone
