Well now I see they're screaming harder - and they're throwing things
But I don't need to follow - I don't want to follow
I'm trying to get hollow - trying to get hollow
Is there something I can borrow - just until tomorrow
Well now I see they're getting lamer to the point of lying down
The beat is getting softer - the heat is getting colder
The light is getting dim - the substance getting thinner
But I'm still trying to grasp it - they give me meals to choke on
And now you hold his hand
And now he understands
But I don't have to face it - I don't have to chase shit
'cause I just wanna see through - I want to embrace you
Get back where you belong at university
Or try to do it our way - try to make it this way
But I don't need to listen - I'll be home for Christmas
I'll see you when it's raining - society is draining
You'll be up and you'll be down in a matter of minutes
I've tried run the distance
Tried and get the high fence
But I've never been a sportsman
Got picked last when they picked teams
I'm the worst kind of amateur
The kind which never wins the war
Though I had the best of teachers
They called me the seeker
And now you...
And now you hold his hand
And now he understands
But I don't have to face it - I don't have to chase shit
'Cause I just wanna see through - I want to embrace you
I just wanna see through - I want to embrace you
Oh oh oh! - I just wanna see through - I want to embrace you
You...
