Lyrics
Been on a visit
To you in your strange land
Crooked and empty
Banal and so bland
You say that I don’t fit
Inside your crowd
You say that I’m always
Talking too loud

CH:
Can’t buy my love with
Things that you promise
Can’t measure my worth with
Things that you purchase
My eyes have opened
My eyes have opened
Wide (You lied!)

You’re sleepwalking hardworking
Corporate good crimes
Competing and striving
Wasting prime time
Not knowing or growing
Or touching one heart
Not being or seeing
Till you depart

Thirsty and hungry
Tired from the long climb
Your black evil hound
Won’t find me this time
Train whistle blowing
Far down the main line
The lights in the distance
Surely a good sign

MIDDLE:
The things that I cherish
Inside outside
Are things that your throw out
Upside downside

I’m walking away
From you and your strange land
Crooked and empty
Banal and so bland
Train whistle blowing
Far down the main line
The lights in the distance
Surely a good sign
