Lyrics
Restless, waiting, stalking, praying,
Pace inside this vacant body.
Where did it all appear to?
Disappeared from here?
I've heard these desperate whispers,
Dreams still scheming,
Screaming on a deaf man's ear.
Just another voided waste,
Another seamless aging face,
Slow to live but quick to fade….
And I'm a little more sober, a little less sane.
Left a cleaner soul behind
And traded-up to common ways.
I've listened to your preachers
And your anarchists the same,
And I don't believe in anything today.
Close my eyes, convinced I'm blind.
Rob a good man's word of meaning.
Countless answers I've forgotten,
Each one's question's more worth keeping.
And I feel its manic pulsing,
Pounding, it surrounds
Me with red-hot fear.
And in between these nightmare highs,
A quiet cadence wonders why, of life,
We live on earth, but reach for sky….
And I'm a little more sober, a little less sane.
Left a cleaner soul behind
And traded-up to common ways.
I'm a little more sober, a little less sane.
I've listened to your preachers
And your anarchists the same.
I'm a little more sober, a little less sane,
And I don't believe in anything today.
Bruised and bleeding but heart's still beating,
And always there's the will to go on feeding.
When all ends Promethean,
Why do we bother to begin?
And so decay's been sainted,
Kids grown tainted
'Cause sellouts are idolized.
It's easier to die, inside,
Than wander on not knowing why
Or when your final faith will fall behind….
And I'm a little more sober, a little less sane.
Left a cleaner soul behind
And traded-up to common ways.
I'm a little more sober, a little less sane.
I've listened to your preachers
And your anarchists the same.
I'm a little more sober, a little less sane,
And I don't believe in anything today.
