lyrics

Sheets to the wind
I see three of them
Someone gave me a gift
But it's this way I see
And hopefully someday soon
I won't need my glasses

The masses I've seen
Only number small beans
Like dots from building tops
Scampering the parking lots
And hopefully someday soon
They won't need their glasses

Watching movements from afar
I see blind religious spar
Understanding worlds apart
And heresy is spoken art
The facts in books are all twisted
But still the facts are listed

Sifting through a beaten path is hell by the shovel
It brings out the madness and numbness in people
Sifting through a beaten path just see what you value less
But it doesn't compare to what is real

Speaking from your soul
Can inhibit your goals
Because we place what we see
In to prejudiced roles
And hopefully someday soon
You won't need your glasses

Preaching is the hardest route
To most you're just higher ground
Spray away the creeping fowl
It happened on your palace ground
The only wish for your soul
Is freedom beyond the wire

Electronic speaking gods
Whisper you and your sleeping dogs
The mountains only comfort you
Until you come to find
Sifting through a beaten path just see what you value less
But it doesn't compare to what is real
