Twenty-five years and my life is still
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination
And I realized quickly when I knew I should
That the world was made up of this brotherhood of man
For whatever that means
And so I cry sometimes
When I’m lying in bed
Just to get it all out
What’s in my head
And I am feeling a little peculiar
And so I wake in the morning
And I step outside
And I take a deep breath and I get real high
And I scream at the top of my lungs
What’s going on?
And I say, hey hey hey hey
I said hey, what’s going on?
ooh, ooh ooh
and I try, oh my god do I try
I try all the time, in this institution
And I pray, oh my god do I pray
I pray every single day
For a revolution
And so I cry sometimes
When I’m lying in bed
Just to get it all out
What’s in my head
And I am feeling a little peculiar
And so I wake in the morning
And I step outside
And I take a deep breath and I get real high
And I scream at the top of my lungs
What’s going on?
And I say, hey hey hey hey
I said hey, what’s going on?
Twenty-five years and my life is still
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination

Starry night bring me down
Till I realize the moon
It seems so distant yet I felt it pass right through
And I see what I see a new world is over me
So I’ll reach up to the sky
And pretend that I’m a spaceman
In another place and time
I guess I’m looking for a brand new place
Is there a better life for me?
Subtle wind blow me gone
Let me rest upon your move
I trust I’ll end up sleeping cradled in my doom
And I feel what I feel
I can’t grasp what is not real
So I’ll get myself real high
And imagine I’m a spaceman
In another place and time
I guess I’m looking for a brand new place
Is there a better life for me?
I remember in my mind
They say I’m daydreaming
Is it all that it seems
Or am I all the things I’m looking for? ?ooh!
And I see what I see a new world is over me
And I’ll reach up to the sky
And imagine I’m a spaceman
In another place and time
I guess I’m looking for a brand new place
I remember living in a different life
Is there a better life for me?

What a wonderful hesitation
Who would bear to feel sorry for me
Dropped another pill just to calm me
Collapsed to my knees and fell fast into sleep
There I was drifting
Way out into the sunshine
Expecting to crash but I`m tied to a string
Look at me I`m a tangled puppet
I might be a mess but I sure can survive
Find myself awake counting sad days
1-2-3 that`s too many for me
Dropped another pill just to find me
Reached for my hand
But it was already there
Then I started believin`
That I fell out of a tiny raindrop
That lost it`s way when it decided to roam
Chasing me was a hungry dweller
But I had escaped it by pretending to die
Come follow me
You won`t expect the illusion
You`ll see
It`s my imagination
Hand me your eyes
I will put them in front of mine
You`ll see a little better
You`ll see a little better
What a wonderful destination
Where I am now
I can no longer see
Dropped another pill just to kill me
Collapsed to my knees
And fell fast into sleep
There I was drifting
Way out into the sunshine
Expecting to crash but I`m tied to a string
Look at me I`m a tangled puppet
I might be a mess but I sure can survive
But I had escaped it by pretending to die…
