I have to find them in the dark
I have to find them all
I have to move my head and dance
I have to walk alone with the storms
But now I'm thinking bout the past
About this time when we knew, when we drew,
When we were learning these compromising things
I want to stand and be adored by all the presidents
Abuse their girls and stay here
Waiting for the wind to turn on
But now I'm gazing back at last
Around this time when we drew what we knew,
When we were learning all these compromising things
And after all I'll be a pillar of the game
Smashing your heads, feeding my elbow in a van
Dance
Dash all your self-defense
And walk
Dance
Picture your heart in a dance
And walk, and walk, and walk
Now I take it all with pleasure as a compliment I get
For how much the hell I've tried
For how much the hell I've failed and I've burnt
But as the day goes by
I'm following it in its fall
And it's barely awaken
That I'm looking back for everyone
I used to sit there in the dark
I used to hear them all
Conversing about their babies
Laughing about the lives they've had
But now I'm cheering they've all passed, and I'm on top
And I don't even care
Well I don't even telephone them now
Their games and rules are now the last of all my plans
