lyrics

You: tell us what you want.
Tell us what is real.
Tell us what is wrong.
We: are heading on a trip;
don't know what to see,
don't know what to hear.

Waves - roll across your eyes
Tell you what is real.
Tell you what is right.
(We hide behind you. You'll never find us. We say it right out loud.)
Wolves: are just a state of mind.
Stay ahead of the pack;
stay ahead of the times.
(We light the fire. We'll forty-five you. We'll cut your eyes out.)

You said to be cool.
You said to be strong.
You said that you'd stay forever;
I knew you were wrong,
but I thought it'd take longer before you forgot me.

Drugs: I take them all the time.
I hate the way they make me feel.
I love the way they pass the time.
Songs: you used to buy them by the dozen.
Now you get them for nothing,
and you wonder why they suck?

You told me to wait.
You told me hold on.
You told me you'd love me forever;
now you're dead and you're gone.
