I used to think I was heavier than a lead weight drownin' with the rest of my cross-town freight |
I remember back in the days We used to have so much fun Goin' to shows and just meeting friends |
But now my controls are gettin' lighter than a stunt kite. I'm flyin' higher, flyin' higher than the starlight ever seemed it could be. |
The love of music was our lust Everyone was equals Everyone was a snob The underground was wide and mighty. |
The heavens seemed closer to the basement Than I ever thought they'd be right now. Right now I'm really standing tall today as I look back And see that your not there. And that's okay. |
The music really meant somethin' to us. Those days are gone. We moved on and grew up. We started havin' children. |
I got lost, I got lost, but that's okay 'cause I'm okay today... I think. |
We started mowing our own lawns. |
I lift my leg up higher, It takes a lot of time To cross the makeshift boundries That we build with our own hands |
Began to think about deeper thoughts. Can we save the world for our children? |
'Cause building things seems much more fun Than watchin' things that die, Just fade away. Just fade away. |
What have we done? Where do we belong? |
And watchin' the past has made it weird For me to steer Without a wheel. Without a keel it makes it hard to stay afloat. |
Prescription pills and television. Super computers that drain our self-importance. |
But I got my rudder back And I'm guidin' her aground. It will be so nice to feel the land To taste the sand For the first time In a long time In a long wave of crime Against myself And I'm okay And I'm okay |
Let's get back to reality. A new wave sort of tranquility. Against all odds. Back when we used to rock. |
