Lyrics
So you want to go into your mind What do you think you're gonna find? Somethin' to help? Somethin' you can use? Somethin' to hold onto; something to abuse? What do we see when our dreams all fade away? So now we're ready We're really ready to rock n' roll I can feel it, feel it, feel it in my soul Where I come from Sol means sun Where I come from sole means one What do we see when our dreams all fade away? We journey to the stars and our thoughts go out to Mars. Now I'm prayin' with my guitar So you people stare straight ahead And you believe every word "they've" said. The path, it dips It slips and trips in many ways Vanishing, vanishing gone in the purple haze And all the while, this is "the land of the free." America, America ...anarchy What do we see when our dreams all fade away? Out there beyond the sun Where all of the angels and the comets run They say there is a man who can get things done So you people stare straight ahead And you'll believe every word I've said Gather 'round close and I'll tell you some lies Pull the cat from my hat and an alibi I'll roll you in clover and throw sand in your eye Over and over, we'll laugh til we cry...
