Talking Heads - Crosseyed And Painless




....



Lost my shape trying to act casual

Can't stop, I might end up in the hospital

Changing my shape, I feel like an accident

They're back to explain their experience



Isn't it weird? Looks too obscure to me

Wasting away, that was the policy



I'm ready to leave, I push the fact in front of me

Facts lost, facts are never what they seem to be

There's nothing there, no information left of any kind

Lifting my head, lo-lo-looking for danger signs



There was a line, there was a formula

Sharp as a knife, facts cut a hole in us

There was a line, there was a formula

Sharp as a knife, facts cut a hole in us



[Bridge]

I'm still waiting

I-I-I'm still waiting

I'm still waiting

I-I-I'm still waiting

I'm still waiting

I-I-I'm still waiting

I'm still waiting

I-I-I'm still waiting



The feeling returns whenever we close our eyes

Lifting my head, looking around inside



The island of doubt, it's like a taste of medicine

Working by hindsight, got the message from the oxygen

M-m-making a list, find the cost of opportunity

Doing it right, facts are useful in emergencies



The feeling returns, whenever we close our eyes

Lifting my head, looking around inside



Facts are simple and facts are straight

Facts are lazy and facts are lame

Facts don't come with points of view

Facts don't do what I want them to

Facts just twist the truth around

Facts are living turned inside out

Facts are getting the best of them

Facts are nothing on the face of men



I'm still waiting

I-I-I'm still waiting

I'm still waiting

I-I-I'm still waiting

I'm still waiting

I-I-I'm still waiting

I'm still waiting

I-I-I'm still waiting
