Looking Glass Waltz

Here comes the new consciousness

Riding the back of a brave new empire
Telling us all to just be easy

But I turn and connect the dots

Between man and what history shows

They tell me it's a foolish thing

That nobody can know
But nobody can wait

In come the marching drum band

To the stand with the church singers too

They're here to signal the end

So let your ears bend and keep turning blue

Things only go this way

And no one gets to go home

Oh you're better off making your place

On the dark side of the road

Where no one goes

Yeah no one goes

To the end

Now that it's over at last

Time can relapse and forget itself

Choose to be nothing at all

And I'll be nothing with you

Oh nostalgia is just a looking glass

It's for us to distort and mold

Oh won't someone please help me

I'm too young to feel this old

But the feeling goes

But the feeling

The feeling all right
