Lyrics

I’m a man who’s separated from his time
caught where words and meanings collide
I’m a man who can’t make his reasons rhyme
but you should know that I am on your side
I’m a man who’s been flanked from both sides
targeted with heavy artillery
If it seems that hopelessness is making strides
you should not lose your faintest faith in me
We oversee your every move
you’re headed for the slope
Every stance we don’t approve
will tighten the rope
I move slowly with creaking joints
among squeaky wheels without a point
Elbows greased but close to my sides
where the words and meanings collide
We oversee your every move
you’re slipping down the slope
Elbows greased but close to my sides
where the words and meanings collide
I’m a man who’s discouraged to state his case
and when I say it I don’t say it in jest
I know I’m destined to face shame and disgrace
still you should know that I’m trying my best
