Will my fortune run, like a river towards the sun?
brighter everyday, till the moment comes
when i'm burning up, shouting "damn my beating drum!"
for my reason was seduced by its rhythm
was that armchair Aristotle with a life bought from IKEA
really right that night he held me at the station
and shouted "BOY YOU COULD BE A BIG SHOT
but your head is baked and bribed-
you've got time, you've got fire
but you're staring at the sky
and...what are you waiting for?
guaranteed light?
and what is the struggle for?
guaranteed light?
i'm over driving blind...call me a coward but I can't lie
Will my blood run cold if I hold my head below
and breathe till for a second I forget her?
will my ears get warm when I walk on by the girl
who pulls and pulls her hair each time I greet her?
cuz I'm still a boy, who's afraid of wayward time
coming round my naked foot to pull me under
but the Walking Wind tells me not to give in
when there's lovers out there waiting on his shoulder
for a second pair of wings
and what are you waiting for?
guaranteed light?
and what is the struggle for?
guaranteed light?
i'm over driving blind, call me a coward but I can't lie
