What are you? |
|
What are you becoming? |
|
What have you become? |
|
Once you sang your own song |
|
Now you're dancing to the same drum |
|
What have you become? |
|
And what is that you're wearing? |
|
Money's ugly confidence |
|
You sacrificed the poem of your imagination |
|
For these pounds and pence |
|
Me i take the cynic's role |
|
Throw scorn on your empty mind |
|
I've seen this monotonous world |
|
Make dull what used to shine |
|
You lost interest |
|
You lost your spine |
|
Oh that spine fine fine |
|
Yeah |
|
When there' nothing left |
|
On this plate you're handed |
|
You find yourself |
|
Running the gauntlet |
|
Of all of these double standards |
|
It's very thin ice over which you're skating |
|
And after this black winter the thaw |
|
So what are you |
|
Tell me tell me what are you |
|
And what have you become |
