lyrics

Can I get a show of hands
Of all the people that you saw lay down
Give into this world's merry-go-round
Cornered by the seas of unknown towns
Is it as sad as it seems

So here we are
Got our mask on and were gonna somehow
Turn the tides tonight if you would allow
For me to take you on a stroll
Tell Me!

Baby's got a feeling like you wouldn't believe
Melts this jigsaw puzzle with one look of her knee
She says the only way to live is to live like a breeze
So let your hair down and ignore the zombies

I play for keeps
No sour peep

For in my heart there's room for one
if you wanna have some fun
You gotta get close

Eye to eye
Toe to toe
and soul to soul

Staring at this guardian angel
She won't let me in
They've heard my trial over and over again
All to keep out some boyish thugs
It's called sense and reason and some times love

Here's a toast to all you people
Born in the wrong age
Bound by the books of the unknown sage
