I'm not disconnected |
|
I'm not unaware |
|
I'm in one place at one time |
|
I'm neither here nor there |
|
I'm hooked to the mainstream, |
|
Tuned into the world |
|
Plugged into my surroundings, |
|
I'm not out on a limb. |
|
I'm thinking in a straight line, |
|
I'm thinking that these thoughts are mine, |
|
My heart is beating oh so fast |
|
I feel the hours crashing |
|
Because my mind keeps time like clockwork, |
|
And I think in sync like clockwork. |
|
She's done away with emotion, |
|
She sees things clearly now. |
|
She says she sees it all from her room |
|
And it looks so small from her room |
|
It's all right, it's all right, |
|
I'm on your side...for a while, |
|
She thinks time is a concept by which we measure our pain (She'll say it again) |
|
She wants to say it again, but she don't have time, |
|
And now her heart beats time like clockwork |
|
And she thinks in sync like clockwork |
|
Count the hours, count the months and minutes, |
|
You're born in tears and die in pain and that's your limit |
|
You're lookin' for a reason but there's none |
|
There, why don't you admit it |
|
We'll make the most of what we've got, that's the tickit |
|
My, my, my. |
|
I stayed in that room a long, long time |
|
And watched the seasons gliding past |
|
And hey...what's the matter?, |
|
We've got time, lots of time |
|
It's alright, it's alright, |
|
I'm on your side for a while, |
|
We'll wind up |
|
We'll slow down |
|
We'll speed up or slow down and we'll maybe overwind... but now or minds, etc. *taken from the album "A Tonic For The Troops" *written by |
