Look around me, I can see my life before me Running rings around the way it used to be I am older now I have more than what I wanted But I wish that I had started long before I did
And there’s so much time to make up everywhere you turn Time we have wasted on the way So much water moving underneath the bridge Let the water come and carry us away
Oh when you were young did you question all the answers Did you envy all the dancers who had all the nerve? Look round you know, you must go for what you wanted Look at all my friends who did and got what they deserved
So much time to make up everywhere you turn Time we have wasted on the way So much water moving underneath the bridge Let the water come and carry us away
So much love to make up everywhere you turn Love we have wasted on the way So much water moving underneath the bridge Let the water come and carry us away Let the water come and carry us away
Sunset is an angel weeping Holding out a bloody sword No matter how I squint I cannot Make out what it’s pointing toward Sometimes you feel like you’ve lived too long The days drip slowly on the page And you catch yourself Pacing the cage
I’ve proved who I am so many times, The magnetic strip’s worn thin And each time I was someone else And everyone was taken in. Powers chatter in high places Stir up eddies in the dust of rage Set me to pacing the cage.
I never knew what you all wanted So I gave you everything. All that I could pillage All the spells that I could sing It’s as if the thing were written In the constitution of the age Sooner or later you’ll wind up Pacing the cage
Sometimes the best map will not guide you You can’t see what’s round the bend. Sometimes the road leads through dark places Sometimes the darkness is your friend. Today these eyes scan bleached-out land, For the coming of the outbound stage Pacing the cage…
