It's a hard old job to see through this fog On a day like this When the path is so long And crowded Oh so Crowded with lobotomised mystics Running in the anyways Anyway away Away anyway
And I I can't beat them I still have a brain And a warm beating heart With disgusting hope Oh evil hope That hasn't yet been wished away By a dead end prayer I think This time my friend it's you that's being lied to
And you with your searchlight Trying to catch it Through this pointless pointless pit It's a lose lose So please stop and think Just stop for one small second If not for me then just for yourself You may be looking for those ones Those eyes you seek But they're half dead And won't answer you They don't even know they're own name Let alone yours
So when you're ready for the mist to clear And the sun to come out For a fine old day Well it's up to you It's your own novel And only you can turn the page
