LYRICS
Right before my eyes I start to realize
Common sense is hard to come by
And, I don’t know why
None to be found
None around
Right before my I’s, I start to realize
Common sense is hard to come by
And, I don’t know why
If all I do is “I, I, I, me, me, me”
It’s easy to see
No surprise
My demise
Right before my eyes I start to realize
Common sense is hard to come by
And, I don’t know why
How can you have more space
If space is nothing
How can you have more nothing
And find a trace?
(trip)
Right before my I’s, I start to realize
Common sense is hard to come by
And, I don’t know why
It seems that this I
The I I eye
Coming to think… it’s inevitable
That I’ll be unable…
I mean, we’re all gonna die
I don’t care why
(skip and a jump / time slide faster)
Common sense is hard to come by
But you’d better try
Not just some sort-of pie-in-sky
Get a grasp
At last
