lyrics

You don’t see what I see
So turn around quickly
You’ve been here before and it’s always the same
You don’t see what I see
To you I’m just moody
And mad to be sad when nothing has changed
Or just sad to be looking for someone to blame
Or glad that there’ll always be someone to blame

I think I’ll give up now
And hang up my charts now
Because a lifetime of learning has got it all wrong
You say let’s go out now
And do something different
And I’m shaking my head we could be circling different stars
And I’m making my bed while you’re still propping different bars
And I’m taking no bets on us going even this far

My defences are low and my reflexes slow to recover
My sights all a daze and my footpath’s a maze to uncover

When you’ve willed it to be
And you wait there to see
Watch that bluebird explode
As you stand by the road
For this spectator sport
That we all would have thought
Would at least leave us better off
Than when we started
The rules have all changed
And the net keeps on moving
And each year that passes
Will make us grow number
Getting used to being beggars
And not being choosers
The lesson to learn today’s
Don’t play with losers

I’m losing my ability to believe
My faith’s fading fast
