lyrics

hey there son, sittin' in the corner all by yourself.
I guess it's not a day for smilin'.
we'll turn it upside down,
we've got all the time in the world.
those hands are pasty white from writing out your name across the walls,
start soundin' like that wild beast...from all your precious children's books, yeah.

those troubles I swear fall further than your reasons.
just take a second and think about it,
those troubles I swear, they fall...

well I've found a new beginning in this age,
it starts with my name then the rest is up to me,
fact of life: you live the same day over and over
till you get it right.
it's what lies within', and you choose the lies that come out (that define what you're thinkin').
maybe if we had one-armed clocks, time would stand long enough for me to see my self.

those troubles I swear fall further than your reasons.
just take a second and think about it,
those troubles I swear, they fall...

well it's been like the S.O.S from when I was lost, 'til I saw myself then spelt my name out, so that the plane could see that I...was already found.

if you could choose to be an item in the next life,
I'd be a set of stairs watching people walk by,
taking count for every single step they make,
from the beginning to the end of all mankind.
