lyrics

I see your reflection on my TV screen
I hear what you say but I don’t see what you mean
I used to know you once when I was young
You used to speak to me till I got a tongue

And I sense say what do you mean
And I know say what is the scene
I used to have my dreams if you know what I mean

You used to think of me till I thought for myself
But all you could see was myself in yourself
I feel my ambition rise up in me
I feel my heart beat but I know I’m not free

I’ve got my own opinions locked up inside
But what’s an opinion if it can’t take sides
I know I’m old enough to be my own boss
But what good’s a life if you can’t give it what it wants

Walk a little talk a little make some conversation
Walk a little talk a little be a congregation
