Walk Like You

You know more than you think you know This universe is in your eyes Inside the galaxies collide Which parent told you that you're slow? My absent dad, my mum's control Schooled me to be a worker drone So this is it A life on earth We're made of stars We're made of dirt Unconsciousness We disconnect Tone deaf to calling We learn to walk like you Talk like you Oo-be-do Think like you Whine like you Love like you in pieces God knows I know no better Easy to say that I can talk I can talk You know more than you think you know Your DNA is pulsed by stars Reveal the cogs that wheel the show So this is it A universe of birth and death Love and neglect But we forget Dad's off on tour or in a meeting We will not walk like you Talk like you Oo-be-do Fight like you Screwed like you Break like you In pieces God knows I know no better Easy to say that I can talk I can talk God knows I know no better Easy to say that I can talk (I can talk, I can talk, I can talk) I can talk (I can talk, I can talk, I can talk) I can talk (I can talk, I can talk, I can talk) Welcome to our coming of age To embrace all that we've become Bored with your stories of pain Shoot yourself with a ricochet You don't know, you don't know, you don't know me You don't know, you don't know, you don't know me Let's inspire, let's inflame, create awe from our pain Find a love that's as deep as it's holy Let's inspire, let's inflame, create gods from our pain Find a love that's as sweet as it's holy Let's inspire, let's inflame, create dreams from our pain Find a love that's as plain as it's holy Let's inspire, let's inflame, create songs from our shame Find a love that won't fade, love is holy But I can talk (I can talk, I can talk, I can talk) I can talk (I can talk, I can talk, I can talk) I can talk (I can talk, I can talk, I can talk) I can talk (I can talk, I can talk, I can talk) --- Walk Like You - James
