I'm running along this abstraction But I can't seem to get any kind of  traction Still bewildered by your initial action And I never expected that kind of reaction I hope it gave you some kind of satisfaction Trying to break me down to a simple fraction I just don't think I'll ever see what is the attraction So it seems that there's no need for any protraction The light that once shined in my eyes refraction Has now obviously become some kind of distraction Whatever once brought us to an impaction I guess those dreams that were - suddenly weren't - by contraction Nothing is ever as simple as finding what was ...wasn't Or could suddenly couldn't When you find out you were what you thought you weren't And now tears... I knew I would though I told myself I wouldn't We still are what we are or we aren't I got to go now... ... As it suddenly seems that to still care is a new world infraction I guess satisfied always  has to end up becoming satisfaction And as I'm running along this abstraction I just can't seem to get any kind of traction.

The action of distraction
I'm running along this abstraction But I can't seem to get any kind of  traction Still bewildered by your initial action And I never expected that kind of reaction I hope it gave you some kind of satisfaction Trying to break me down to a simple fraction I just don't think I'll ever see what is the attraction So it seems that there's no need for any protraction The light that once shined in my eyes refraction Has now obviously become some kind of distraction Whatever once brought us to an impaction I guess those dreams that were - suddenly weren't - by contraction Nothing is ever as simple as finding what was ...wasn't Or could suddenly couldn't When you find out you were what you thought you weren't And now tears... I knew I would though I told myself I wouldn't We still are what we are or we aren't I got to go now... ... As it suddenly seems that to still care is a new world infraction I guess satisfied always  has to end up becoming satisfaction And as I'm running along this abstraction I just can't seem to get any kind of traction.
