kansas

Lyrics

some of us think seldom in the night, of goddamn horses, and goddamn wires, it's in one ear, and never sees the other side, unsteadiness belies your tender years, with real world problems, and real world fears, be young, imbibe tonight, like you're a work of fiction, so simmer down, we'll brave the shitty light, like proto-people with cro-magnon hands, and stones for knives, and lions in our pants, i could tell you all my thoughts on god, don't mind his portraits, but i hate his psalms, were i a pious knob, i know i'd try and listen, oh, rest assured, oh, there are harder ways to roam, oh, when you're tired just let me know, oh, we're not in kansas anymore, you know it's not a stretch for me to say, we're strange young hermits, in a strange new place, and through the years, i hope it stays the same, the bed is warm, but don't believe the hype, and throw boring parties, live boring lives, in saying this, i feared enough to try, and swallowed line and sinker, oh, rest assured, oh, there are harder ways to go, oh, when you're tired just let me know, oh, we're not in kansas anymore, some of us sleep seldom in the night, we're goddamn mortals, with no goddamn time, and in saying this, don't pay it any mind, oh, rest assured, oh, there are harder ways to go, oh, when you're tired just let me know, oh, we're not in kansas anymore
