Wipe away the summer air
You don't wanna see
That's you in that Photograph from 1973

And you don't even know me

God only Knows I wanna be

The other side of misery
Gimme a plate of Fluorescein
I'm gonna paint an ugly scene

All of the things I wanna say
Can't get a word out anyway
Falling away after today

Nothing to lose so come what may

Don't wake me


You got away from me somehow
And all we tried to be

Everything is different now
The mind's eye fails to see
And all we know is TV


Inside, I rise above this shallow world
Inside, I rise above this sorrow
