Lyrics
---Vs 1
Through the windows of my soul
I saw a sign in the sky
I couldn?t read a word it said
The meaning was too high
I had a dream that I could fly like a bird
But I woke up on the ground
Do you have the time, is it relative
My bio clock is running down
---Chorus
Inside, inside out
Outside looking in
My mind is on a slip and slide
And I?m upside down again
Inside, inside out
Outside looking in
My mind is on a slip and slide
And I?m upside down again
---Vs 2
Through the meadows of my thoughts
The poppy seeds won?t grow
I search the fields for evidence
What I?m looking for I don?t know
I had a dream that I could breathe underwater
When I woke up, my goldfish had drown
Don?t have the taste for a noose or a blade
So I?m still hanging ?round
---Chorus
Slip and slide...
---Bridge
I think I?ve got the answer
But I forgot the question again
And who?s that in the mirror
It doesn?t look like who I think I am
---Chorus
Slip and slide...
