You wake up every morning
every morning is the same
with the coffee and the paper
and the thoughts inside your brain
nothings changed
You don't understand
how it went so fast
the money you made
and the love you thought would last
all went past
I want something new
I want something true
something I do on my own
I need something fine
to distract my mind
get me off of this grindstone
Bitten by birds
and poisoned by snakes
you stood with tramps
presidents and fakes
made mistakes
Everyday is just another
washed-out section of the
fake front page you pray
it's just a dream
then you scream
I want something new
I want something true
something I do on my own
I need something fine
to distract my mind
get me off of this grindstone
Sometimes the scales tip so unfair
your song of longing dies in the air
you tell yourself that you just don't care
but deep inside it hurts
when nothing works
I want something new
I want something true
something I do on my own
I need something fine
to distract my mind
get me off of this grindstone..
however, you've got the lyrics wrong, if you look in the liner notes of Till the Light comes they're there! Thanks again! I fuckin LOVE this song!
