Takes
Lyrics
[verse]
Read a story folded in the morning news,
A man who couldn't find his way to choose,
Nobody stopped to hear what he could tell,
They just sighed and rang the bell.
[verse]
I woke up late and combed my hair,
Caught the early bus but didn't care,
Watched the ceiling turn to smoke,
Somewhere between the dream and the joke.
[chorus]
And I saw it all unfold,
Like a picture, gray and cold,
Turning pages, turning years,
Watching strangers dry their tears.
[verse]
Empty windows in a crumbling hall,
Nobody stopped to count them all,
Counted shadows on the wall instead,
Lost the numbers in my head.
[bridge]
Rising up, a wall of sound,
Spinning faster off the ground,
Everything at once and gone,
Silence holding on and on.
[chorus]
And I saw it all unfold,
Like a picture, gray and cold,
Turning pages, turning years,
Watching strangers dry their tears.

Read a story folded in the morning news,
A man who couldn't find his way to choose,
Nobody stopped to hear what he could tell,
They just sighed and rang the bell.

Caught the early bus but didn't care,
Watched the ceiling turn to smoke,
Somewhere between the dream and the joke.

And I saw it all unfold,
Like a picture, gray and cold,
Turning pages, turning years,
Watching strangers dry their tears.

Empty windows in a crumbling hall,
Nobody stopped to count them all,
Counted shadows on the wall instead,
Lost the numbers in my head.

Rising up, a wall of sound,
Spinning faster off the ground,
Everything at once and gone,
Silence holding on and on.

[chorus]
And I saw it all unfold,
Like a picture, gray and cold,
Turning pages, turning years,
Watching strangers dry their tears.
