Lights are flashing like a panic
Doesn't seem that romantic
To me
But I'm getting caught up
And all the things you bought up
For me
So I just lay back
While you plan your attack
On me
All this smoke and Noise
Seems to take away the joys
From me
I think that I'm tripping on more than just ecstasy
Somewhere I found a crack in your philosophy
So now I know you're Human After All
I used to look up to you like you were 10 feet tall
I see the smoke in the mirrors did just appear
When you saw that happ'nin i saw you melt with fear
You can't stand to look at what you have become
And in my head the words are pounding
Like a madman taking a baseball bat to a drum
I seen you now without your Pretenders cloak
What a joke
I can't imagine all the times I just fell in line
Now it's a sign
Take a left at the next turn
Don't worry about the red light it ain't your concern
You can take a U-turn maybe then you'll find something to learn
You can't pay for love that you didn't earn
So I'll be getting out at the corner
So you can go play the mourner
And you can ***** yourself then
I'm not just another ten pin
For you to knock down on your way to make a score
And you ain't worth no money
Even though you ain't nothing but a *****

Lights are flashing like a panic
Doesn't seem that romantic
To me
And I may still be Trippin
But it ain't on no ecstasy
