Staring At The Walls (Too Late)

Lyrics
I watch it all as it crumbles around I'm sitting. Staring at the walls as they're tumbling down What makes it worse is that I know what's unfolding And yet I go with the flow. It's as if I don't even notice it 'Til it's too late; And it's all just crumbling around us Sitting staring at the walls as they're tumbling down What makes it worse is that we know what's unfolding And yet we go with the flow. It's as if we don't even notice it 'Til it's too late Living in an age of pesticides Picket fences and Stepford Wives Everybody mesmerized; Watching the news, petrified Stressed inside, acting like it'll all be good Just basing our lives on Hollywood But it ain't working out how we thought it should Thought it should; no Disillusioned, just sitting through it Like nothing's wrong. "Nothing's wrong." Comfortably numb; couldn't give a fuck it all Now, why you think they want to put fluoride in drinking water? Give your kids Ritalin, get 'em high and say they thinkin' smarter? It's all a part of the grander scheme To keep the people distracted from planting seeds; Trying to grow these magic beans Living in an age of fantasies, travesties, and apathy So pass the weed It's all too much for me, I need to relax in peace And watch it all as it crumbles around I'm sitting. Staring at the walls as they're tumbling down What makes it worse is that I know what's unfolding And yet I go with the flow. It's as if I don't even notice it 'Til it's too late; And it's all just crumbling around us Sitting staring at the walls as they're tumbling down What makes it worse is that we know what's unfolding And yet we go with the flow. It's as if we don't even notice it 'Til it's too late Hope it isn't too late I hope it ain't too late (Is it too early?) (Is it too late?) I hope it ain't too late (Is it too early?) (Is it too late?) Living in a world of opposites; | Black - white / left - right | consciousness Everybody caught in this Walking on the edge of this bottomless pit Better elevate. Levitate Never wait 'til you get a break; too late Never hesitate. Get a bit of cake Swallow bitter truth with a sip of lemonade Don't forget to swing. When you get up, undulate Don't forget to swim when you get up into space Sun meet Earth, let me get a little taste King meet Serf, let me get up in your place Let me get a shape, put a name to the face Let me get a break from the game and the race Let me meditate 'til my brain get erased And my love is the same as my pain and my hate (Break!) I fall apart and then back again; Won't keep repeating that pattern I'm standing in Trying to pass this labyrinth Living in an ancient cosmic beam Thoughts of She, whose conscious dream We're breathing and eating. Dying; returning to constantly To watch it all as it crumbles around I sit there staring at the walls as they're tumbling down What makes it worse is that I know what's unfolding And yet I go with the flow. It's as if I don't even notice it 'Til it's too late; And it's all just crumbling around us Sitting staring at the walls as they're tumbling down What makes it worse is that we know what's unfolding And yet we go with the flow. It's as if we don't even notice it 'Til it's too late
