I said you with your fortresses lay,
In the coldness of time.
Doing nothing more,
Than watching it all pass you by.
Sure itâs easier than being in any kind of investment in life,
Find your money. Find your home,
Thereâs nothing more to being alive.
Said Iâll hide in my shallows,
Itâs easier than moving with the tides,
Up and down youâll be pulled,
Youâre a fool,
Thereâs no freedom in rollercoaster rides.
He said my feet are on the ground,
Iâm free to walk around.
You stay in your depths.
Youâre too afraid to drown in your dreams.
And itâs gone, all gone, all gone
And itâs gone, all gone, all gone
Ideas have no words,
And words have no ideas, theyâre only sounds
And I said oh you poor man,
Your life is more bland than you think,
Your ideas are as clear as the water that runs down your sink.
I said your days are full of hours
And your house Is full of things
Your cameraâs full of pictures
Your head is only full of what you drink.
You think you are so wise with your Dephts and disguise
youâre a fool
You have nothing to your name but a single person to blame
But you
Donât you dare philosophy
âcause Iâm happy with my life
You donât know where youâre going
And youâll end up nowhere
Keep your truth
And itâs gone, all gone, all gone
And itâs gone, all gone, all gone
Ideas have no words,
And words have no ideas, theyâre only sounds
And I said you think you are so happy,
Go procrastinate until the day you die.
Give your kids your big mortgage,
And Iâm sure youâll live on through their lives.
Be a mortal in your fishbowl,
Hold a candle for your light.
You can live on forever.
Youâre freeze-dried packaged up mind.
And you are very clever with words and philosophies
Youâre alone
See, Iâd rather join the herd be part of a crowd than on my own
Give yourself all that time
Youâre much ?realler? than I
Alone you will die
With your poetry and dignity
Good-bye
And itâs gone, all gone, all gone
And itâs gone, all gone, all gooonnnneeee
Ideas have no words,
And words have no ideas, theyâre only sounds
Might as well join the herd,
Mixed melody, to our ears, for now.
