lyrics

How did I end up here?
Perhaps I have been unclear?
Or maybe something I said
They tell me I lost the thread…
At the window to peer outside
To see what I can see
The urge for perspective has been denied
There are no points in this scene
Four walls around me are friends of mine
But I don’t include the door
Float to the ceiling with elastic eyes
Now I can’t find the floor

I hear you coming down the hall – I can’t hide
Open me up and take a peek inside
You ask me nicely “Well, is that so?”
For you to find out and for me to know

Just tell me
What’s out there
I’m in the dark but I see light
Just tell me
How can I be
Out of mind and out of sight?

How did I end up here?
Perhaps I have been unclear?
Or maybe something I said
They tell me I lost the thread…
You say you’ve heard this before
Just like a revolving door
But I can’t find my way out
I see no swings or roundabouts
At the window to peer inside
To see what you can see
Your needles hiding a cure untried
And confusion’s guaranteed
I’m off the wall so you make the call
To let the hurricane unwind
Self-propelled I’m falling through the wall
And leave a me shaped hole behind

I hear you coming down the hall – I can’t hide
Open me up and take a peek inside
I ask you nicely “Well, is that so?”
For me to find out and for you to know

Just tell me
What’s out there
I’m in the dark but I see light
Just tell me
How I can be
Just help me
Get back in my own mind and out of your damned sight

How did you end up here?
Your cities are full of fear
Yeah, gridlock is a fun game
You people all look the same
Your money controls your life
Without it you’re called deprived
And you can see no way out
Too many swings and roundabouts
I climbed a mountain saw far and wide
A desert and a sea
I saw both sides with all that is implied
With confusion in between
It’s all off the wall so I make the call
To let the hurricane rewind
Self-compelled I bid you all farewell
And leave you all to your designs

In through the me shaped hole I make my way
Back to Room 6 imagine my dismay
Someone’s in there, not sure who
Is it me in there or dammit am I you?

Just let me
Back in there
I’m in the dark but I see light
Just tell me
How I can be
Just let me
Get out my own mind, get out of my own sight
