I can hear you catch your breath
Drifting off from conversation
Biding time to turn and run
Be quick 'cause I have nothing left
And carefully I form my hand
And ask for something I can't see
Force it from behind my teeth
Things I don't even understand
Waiting for your path to cross mine
The sun setting in my street
When did I become so lost in ideals, ideals, ideals, ideals?
I fear I'm living out my name
So I took it out and buried it
I gave it up; it gave me life
Well look, it's all the same
Well send my folks a spitting ?
We're schoolyard educated
We're animals inside the light
I can't even understand
Waiting for your path to cross mine
The sun setting in my street
When did I become so lost in ideals, ideals, ideals, ideals?
Drifting off from conversation
Biding time to turn and run
Be quick 'cause I have nothing left
And carefully I form my hand
And ask for something I can't see
Force it from behind my teeth
Waiting for your path to cross mine
The sun setting in my street
When did I become so lost in ideals, ideals, ideals, ideals?
So I took it out and buried it
I gave it up; it gave me life
Well look, it's all the same
We're schoolyard educated
We're animals inside the light
Waiting for your path to cross mine
The sun setting in my street
When did I become so lost in ideals, ideals, ideals, ideals?
