lyrics

Are you living like you taught?
Have a talk with yourself, today.
Are you giving what you ought?
Have a talk with yourself, today.
Do you find you're less inclined when there's
Nobody to look your way?
Have you got it figured out this time
Again?

When you look up, are you shook up
To see a cloud hanging over you?
Your heart is beat up, your car is keyed up, and
Your head's down by your shoes.
Are you afraid this game that you've played, you only
Ever had the chance to lose?
Again?
And again?
And again?
And again?

And maybe when we're gone,
You'll have a talk with yourself, today.
And if you scan the walls
For the rays you've been searching for.
Ordinance is out for blood and
Nothing is standing still.
Come through Toledo, it's where the
Monk has gone.

Are you down for hanging around to maybe
Go to the marketplace?
Get a bite by the candlelight and paint a
Tiger on your face.
Will you give us another chance or just abandon the human race?
Again?
And again?
And again?
And again?

When you look up, are you shook up
To see a cloud hanging over you?
When's the last time you saw the sunshine and
Smiled, just for something to do?
Are you afraid this game that you've played, you only
Ever had the chance to lose?
Again?
And again?
And again?
And again?
