lyrics

When thoughts project on the wall from the mind
And animal hunters search for the blind
Everyone here will get old sick and die
And gravity’s lost its complete sense of time
We know we need to relax and unwind
The dispatch barters what he couldn’t find
Prisoners are punished for crossing the line
One step and there’ll be men with guns from behind

I’ll set you free but don’t turn your back on me
Or my thieves will rob you in your sleep
Little thieves don’t turn your back on me
And that’s all I’m asking of you

The pills we push are politically kind
And make all the patients lose their sense of time
They’re locked in their room but they’re doing just fine
The outside world is happy sublime
We’re going too fast we need to rewind
Transfigure transform shift and modify
Relapse is groggy and full of surmise
Perpetual daydream was always the prize

I’ll let you be but don’t turn your back on me
Or my thieves will rob you in your sleep
Little thieves don’t turn your back on me
And that’s all I’m asking of you
Yeah that’s all I want from you
