Lyrics

Where does the time go? / Where does my mind go when I hear the sound? / Profound are the words of the birds / Sung with fear every year / As the leaves fall to the ground / What are they saying? / Are they just playing? Are they in my head? / Can I go to bed dressed in red / As a frown painted clown / While I sing the words she said? / They’re laughing. They’re laughing at me / They’re laughing. They’re laughing at me / I’m crying. I’m crying for freedom / Why can’t they hear my screams? / Could I be crazy? / I’m hazed and I’m lazing around all day / The way that she fucked her conductor / De-brained the train / This just might end our day / No, It couldn’t happen / The note on the napkin said we’ll be fine / My mind goes insane in this game / Viewing plays in a maze / As I phase my place in time / They’re laughing. They’re laughing at me / They’re laughing. They’re laughing at me / I’m crying. I’m crying for freedom / They haunt me in my dreams / Hello? I think I thought I heard another voice inside my head / But, then again, I find the echo makes it easy to pretend / That I’ll never be lonely again / I’m lost and I’m waiting / Confused, I am dating the things I have found / Now grounded, so few are untrue / None are fake but the snake / Don’t let him try to bring you down / Where does the time go? / Where does my mind go when I hear the sound? / Profound are the words of the birds / Sung with fear every year / As the leaves fall to the ground / They’re laughing. They’re laughing at me / They’re laughing. They’re laughing at me / I’m crying. I’m crying for freedom / Why can’t they hear my screams?
