so when you've seen it all

a thousand times

and the novelty starts to wear off

will you surrender or

commit a crime?

or will you write a book

like nabokov?

so when the thrill is gone

but you need more

when you're not satisfied

by the encore

where will you turn your eyes?

where will you go?

will you say "no more lies!"

and start to grow?

when you have read these lyrics

once or twice

and when the message

has finally come through

will you be deeply touched

by sunrise skies

or will you bite the hand

that's feeding you?
