Tail Of The World

I sit alone with my head full of ideas
I can't get them out, scream and shout
Days whistle by now, see how they fly now
My, my, my, they just roll by
I can't seem to smell the flowers, can't see the trees
Chasing the tail of the world, just trying to please
I walk around with my feet on the ground, but
Sometimes I miss a step, I hate missing anything
Cover my tracks and the ones I have not made yet
It's such a shame, and I am to blame
I can't seem to smell the flowers, can't see the trees
Chasing the tail of the world, just trying to please
But if I search you out, then for a moment
I fly away, I fly away
Glimpses of everything in it's right place
What a day, please, please stay
I can't seem to smell the flowers, can't see the trees
Chasing the tail of the world, just trying to please
I can't seem to smell the flowers, can't see the trees
Chasing the tail of the world, just trying to please
