In my mind's eye nothing's moving |
|
Life's unchanging, it's almost soothing |
|
And in my mind's eye I have this painting |
|
A self portrait which lies in waiting |
|
The back to front image looks back in my face |
|
With a million lines that just seem out of place with the lie |
|
In my mind's eye |
|
Motorbike roars and guitars screaming |
|
Festival's haze don't stop me dreaming |
|
Quietly jump into shoes oh so old |
|
With prosthetic addons to comfort my souls in the lie |
|
In my mind's eye |
|
More sonatas and more concertos |
|
More recitals and more cheap death throes |
|
Out in a dream world of fortune and fame |
|
Where no-one around me can even remember my name |
|
In my mind's eye |
|
We see ourselves as what we want |
|
The Mirror will oblige! |
|
Wise man, young kid, rebel youth |
|
But all of the truth's behind the lies |
|
In my mind's Eye! |
|
Out in a dream world of fortune and fame |
|
Where no-one around me can even spell my name |
|
Tell my mind's eye |
|
In my mind's eye! |
|
We see ourselves as what we want |
|
The Mirror will oblige! |
|
Wise man, young kid, rebel youth |
|
But all of the truth's behind the lies |
|
All of the truth's behind our lies |
