Living without you

He sees bridges a-burning
he feels the tables are turning
"a boy" that's what they named him
they meant he still could be changing
retreat into the rigid
make do and be a midget
rock beach breaking the sea's tide
you pay tho' it's a free ride

       procrastinating and contemplating
       living without you
       you rainbow-trout you
       living without you
       it's about time too

lose friends while you're just joking
the room full of their smoking
"a man" one of the many
a choice, but is there any ?
your dreams cannot be trusted
love, hope, have all been busted
farewell to what was your tribe
pay dues or just a big bribe

        refr.
