Everything Stays
In a skeletal form
I'm a sedated man
With a hard cracked shoulder
A twitch in my arm
Feel bluffed with scorn
I'm mere second hand
To the days of my old
I don't mean no harm
You change, you change
All blame, no shame
Feeling self referential
Playing a game
All the same, all the same
Myself I remain
To the days of my old
I don't mean no pain
And I see
A light on a stage
It's so hard
To be
A rat in a cage
It's so hard
Oh please
The lights have changed
But I'm not moving
All free
From the light on the stage
When everything stays
Well I've seen this play
Once or twice
Before, before
Before, before
You change, you change
All blame, no shame
Feeling self referential
Playing a game
All the same, all the same
Myself remain
To the days of my old
I don't mean no pain
And I see
A light on a stage
It's so hard
To be
A rat in a cage
Oh it's so hard
Oh please
The lights have changed
but I'm not moving
All free
From the light on the stage
Everything stays the same
Oh in a skeletal form
I'm a sedated man
With a hard cracked shoulder
A twitch in my arm
Bluffed with scorn
I'm mere second hand
To the days of my old
I don't mean no harm
I don't mean no harm
I don't mean no harm
I'm a sedated man
With a hard cracked shoulder
A twitch in my arm
Feel bluffed with scorn
I'm mere second hand
To the days of my old
I don't mean no harm
You change, you change
All blame, no shame
Feeling self referential
Playing a game
All the same, all the same
Myself I remain
To the days of my old
I don't mean no pain
And I see
A light on a stage
It's so hard
To be
A rat in a cage
It's so hard
Oh please
The lights have changed
But I'm not moving
All free
From the light on the stage
When everything stays
Well I've seen this play
Once or twice
Before, before
Before, before
You change, you change
All blame, no shame
Feeling self referential
Playing a game
All the same, all the same
Myself remain
To the days of my old
I don't mean no pain
And I see
A light on a stage
It's so hard
To be
A rat in a cage
Oh it's so hard
Oh please
The lights have changed
but I'm not moving
All free
From the light on the stage
Everything stays the same
Oh in a skeletal form
I'm a sedated man
With a hard cracked shoulder
A twitch in my arm
Bluffed with scorn
I'm mere second hand
To the days of my old
I don't mean no harm
I don't mean no harm
I don't mean no harm
