[Verse 1] In a far and distant galaxy Inside my telescope I see A pair of eyes peer back at me He walks and talks and looks like me He sits around inside his house From room to room, he moves about Fills his life with pointless things And wonders how it all turns out [Refrain] Do-do-do-do-do-do Do-do-do-do-do-do It's safe to say that [Chorus] I don't think you understand There's nowhere left to turn The walls keep breaking Time is like a leaf in the wind Either it's time well spent or time I've wasted Don't waste it [Verse 2] Afraid of what the truth might bring He locks his doors and never leaves Desperately searching for signs Too terrified to find a thing He battens all the hatches down And wonders why he hears no sounds Frantically searching his dreams He wonders what it's all about [Refrain] Do-do-do-do-do-do Do-do-do-do-do-do It's safe to say that [Chorus] I don't think you understand There's nowhere left to turn The walls keep breaking Time is like a leaf in the wind Either it's time well spent or time I've wasted [Bridge] Here in my mind, losing my friends Fall on my face, do it again You say, "How do you do?" Man, how 'bout you? Man, how 'bout you? To be free, to be sold To be killed, to be safe In my head, I'm alone I'm not dead, I'm ashamed Just like you, I've been trying to escape In my bones, I feel cold I give thanks to the Lord Industry, in the street Let me go, let me be I don't need to be here I don't know, can't you see? Can't you see? [Chorus] I don't think you understand There's nowhere left to turn These walls keep breaking Time is like a leaf in the wind Either it's time well spent or time I've wasted Don't waste it
