Busy Being Somebody Else
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Shine!!! I wake up to the light
But I'm still dreaming
Because for all we know
We are on our own
Days pass by and leave us behind
There's no time to blink our eyes
But we're not playing games
To be entertained
Count me in, in every way
I'll sit down another day
I don't want to be denied
By the public eye
Despite we conseal we can't see where
We're going we're so alone
We'll find what we need
If we learn not to follow
God is still himself or do you think he's
Busy being somebody else?
Fine!! I will fall in line!
You'll get my voice but not my mind
And if I go against the grain
I've been told there will be hell to pay
They'll crown me if I'd die today
They'll crucify my anyway
We all need someone else to blame
To me it's all the same
