I'm young
And you see through my eyes
And you feel that you're old
You're old
And you live through your eyes
And you wish you were young
Back in Cambridge
When you shout by the side
Like the fool that you are
You were losing you touch
You were losing our trust
Back inside on the ice
Back of the eye to the ice
You wait, you wait
Wait you wait, you wait
With your lips against the mirror
I guess you couldnt see your face
Pressures, pressures
they take cocaine, they take cocaine
Pressures, pressures
they take cocaine, they take cocaine
You just wasted your time
Trying to change me I'm not
So I, found my home gently
perched on the roots of a tree
Protecting me
And grounding me
It's been a piggy-back ride
On a very very piggy front
Back inside on the ice
Back of the eye to the ice
You wait, you wait
Wait you wait, you wait
So you looked into the mirror
And they gave you back your face
Pressures, pressures
they take cocaine, they take cocaine
Pressures, pressures
they take cocaine, they take cocaine
Pressures, pressures
they take cocaine, they take cocaine
Pressures, pressures
they take cocaine, they take cocaine
Heres something else
That I know that you wouldnt
Heres something else
That I know that you wouldnt
Heres something else
That I know that you wouldnt
Heres something else
That I know that you wouldnt
Theres Something you did
That I thought that you couldnt
Theres Something you did
That I thought that you couldnt
Cafés, big wide arms
Have lost their particular charm
No one leaves this house
But still, you miss me honey
Cafés, big wide eyes
Have lost their ambiguous smile
No one lives this house
But still, you miss my honey
You're standing from the side
It's only for tonight
But you can't change you'll never be
You'll promisse for tonight
It's only the last time
But you wont change you'll never see
So why do you look at me
So why do you look at me
Cos you can't change you'll never be
A social man of right
A social stalactite
Hey you wont change you'll never be (eee ..)
