No State for Air
Let the record show that I wasn't there
In body or in mind, I wasn't aware
The protocol for this sort of affair
Is to pass on by and to let it rest
Because you gave a shot, yeah, you did your best
Collect your thoughts while they wait outside
You can hatch a plan, or just take a ride
But whatever, however you decide
Don't wait too long, don't wait too long
One swallow doesn't make a summer night
You can't just bank your hopes on being polite
They're gonna put you through it whether you like it or
Not, you know, that you've got to go, if you want to live, if you want to know
Collect your thoughts while they wait outside
You can hatch a plan, or just take a ride
But whatever, however you decide
Don't wait too long, don't wait too long
They could find you anywhere
Now the circle gets the square
No time now to turn to stone
You know they won't kill their own
I know you're a decent man
But you'll be a flash in the pan
Sometimes it's a compromise
This time it's a compromise
Collect your thoughts while they wait outside
You can hatch a plan, or just take a ride
But whatever, however you decide
Don't wait too long, don't wait too long
In body or in mind, I wasn't aware
The protocol for this sort of affair
Is to pass on by and to let it rest
Because you gave a shot, yeah, you did your best
Collect your thoughts while they wait outside
You can hatch a plan, or just take a ride
But whatever, however you decide
Don't wait too long, don't wait too long
One swallow doesn't make a summer night
You can't just bank your hopes on being polite
They're gonna put you through it whether you like it or
Not, you know, that you've got to go, if you want to live, if you want to know
Collect your thoughts while they wait outside
You can hatch a plan, or just take a ride
But whatever, however you decide
Don't wait too long, don't wait too long
They could find you anywhere
Now the circle gets the square
No time now to turn to stone
You know they won't kill their own
I know you're a decent man
But you'll be a flash in the pan
Sometimes it's a compromise
This time it's a compromise
Collect your thoughts while they wait outside
You can hatch a plan, or just take a ride
But whatever, however you decide
Don't wait too long, don't wait too long
