Vigil in a Wilderness of Mirrors - Fish

Listen to me just hear me out
If I could have your attention
Just quieten down for a voice in the crowd (in the crowd)

I get so confused and I don't understand
I know you feel the same way you've always wanted to say
But you don't get the chance
Just a voice in the crowd in the crowd
I don't know the score anymore it's not clear anymore
I can't tell right from wrong anymore I just don't understand
I was sitting here thinking of exchanging a new world for old
Like changing channels on the TV or the dirt we stand in to gold
When I was young my father told me just the bad guys die
At the time just a little white lie
It was one of the first but it hurt me the most
And the truth stung like tears in my eye
That even the good guys must die
There's no reasoning no crimes and I never knew why
Even now it still makes me cry
If there's somebody up there could they throw me down a line
Just a little helping hand just a little understanding
Just some answers to the questions that surround me now
If there's somebody up there could they throw me down a line
Just a little guiding light to tell wrong from right
Just some answers to the questions that I'm asking you
I keep a vigil in a wilderness of mirrors
Where nothing here is ever what it seems
You stand so close but you never understand it
For all that we see is not what it seems am I blind
Uh fire
And you sit there and talk revolution
But can you tell me just who's in command
When you tell me the forces we are fighting
Then I'll gladly join and make plans
But for now only our T-shirts cry freedom
And our voices are gagged by our greed
Our minds are harnessed by knowledge
By the hill and the will to succeed
And if that's not what you believe
Would you let me know I'm not standing alone
That I'm not just a voice in the crowd
If there's somebody up there could they throw me down a line
Just a little helping hand just a little understanding
Just a little understanding to the questions that I'm asking you
If there's somebody up there could they throw me down a line
Just a little guiding light to tell wrong from right
Just some answers to the questions that I'm asking you
I'll keep a vigil in a wilderness of mirrors
Where nothing here is ever what it seems
You reach now you so colse you can touch world that old
Dispires when they total we so near
But one day we will fire there we stand in the line
On to they now people they vigil in a wide on the mirrors
Where nothing here is ever what it seems
I'm scared to shout in case I draw attention from the powers
That preside over our minds and our lives
When they find what I want is the deadliest weapon that is truth
Day by day it's getting louder
And day by day it's getting stronger
But when I can't scream no more and I need reassurance
I listen to the crowd
