Pinback - Grey Machine Lyrics

Lie blinded
On the left side
A parking attendant sleeps
Selling space and time
On the right side
A parking attendant sleeps
Selling space and time
They have grasped the concept
Of property
Understand that lengths of time
Can be twisted into someone's
Monetary advantage
They have grasped the concept
Of property
Understand that lengths of time
Can be twisted into someone's
Monetary advantage
But, I can see myself
In that building that stands
Across from me
Reflecting in the sky
You can see yourself
Swim along the giant whales
Down the street
Reflecting in the sky
On sunny days
The people on the beach
Like ants in my food.
They must have closed the mall.
Here comes whitey to exploit
The simple pleasures nature gave me,
Then try to tax them all.
but, I can see myself
In that building that stands
across from me
Reflecting in the sky
You can see yourself
Swim along the giant whales
Down the street
Reflecting in the sky
But, I can see myself
In that building that stands
Across from me
Reflecting in the sky
You can see yourself
Swim along the giant whales
Down the street
Reflecting in the sky
But, I can see myself
In that building that stands
Across from me
Reflecting in the sky
You can see yourself
Swim along the giant whales
Down the street
Reflecting in the sky
Hey look its you
I'm letting go
Its scaring me
I'm letting go
Its scaring me
I'm letting
Its scaring me
Lay in the yard
Curled in a ball
Nails in your mouth
Keys still in the car door
Face in the dirt
Smells more than clean
Synapsis tapped
You're well out
On the side of the house
Its burned in the ground
That secret code
That signal go
There's a stain on the grass
That's calling us home
You lie inside for the
Transistor send
My heart skips a beat
On the side of the house
Its burned in the ground
That secret code
That signal go
There's a stain on the grass
That's calling us home
You lie inside for the
Transistor send
Lie blinded
Lie blinded
Out of reach
Out of touch
Out of ink
Out of kindness
Never hazing new guys
Out of teeth
Out of thought
Out of time
Out of life
Like cattle grazing
Your mind
On the way to the car
On the head of the stone
On the edge of the lake
On the end of the joke
On the crack of the floor
On the slab of the day
On the dent of the face
On the mind of the cop
On the scar of the rat
On the last of the calls
On the rest of the doc
On the smile of the kid
Pick me up
Take me home
Get me out of here
Please
On the underside I'm letting go
They know were on to them
We know to avoid - their snare
They're pulling us back
We run for cover
Escape is far
I'm letting go
Its scaring me
Break
I'm gonna break
