its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
I am deaf, to the sound of your thoughts.
I am blind, to the sight of you.
Look deeper than your heart for an answer to this.
Close your eyes, we're breathing in sequence.
Look deeper than your heart, past the wreckage we call home.
Questions without answers; Answers without hope.
Tear out the heart that beats, lacking appreciation.
Tear out the eyes that see, but refuse to accept.
What is left unsatisfied, will take your breath away, so gasp for air.
Don't give what is Holy to dogs, they will only turn and attack.
Don't give pearls to pigs, they will only trample them underfoot.
Your eyes paint a portrait of apathy.
Questions without answers; Answers without hope.
Look deeper than your heart, an answer can be found.
Close your eyes, we're breathing in sequence.
Welcome to the real world.
I am blind, to the sight of you.
Look deeper than your heart for an answer to this.
Close your eyes, we're breathing in sequence.
Look deeper than your heart, past the wreckage we call home.
Questions without answers; Answers without hope.
Tear out the heart that beats, lacking appreciation.
Tear out the eyes that see, but refuse to accept.
What is left unsatisfied, will take your breath away, so gasp for air.
Don't give what is Holy to dogs, they will only turn and attack.
Don't give pearls to pigs, they will only trample them underfoot.
Your eyes paint a portrait of apathy.
Questions without answers; Answers without hope.
Look deeper than your heart, an answer can be found.
Close your eyes, we're breathing in sequence.
Welcome to the real world.

He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.

The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
