While You Were Out

Make ure chillin
Guts start spillin
Its piece of a puzzle
Piece of a trouble
Is it somethin else?
Ure sellin yourself
Im so wanting
Without a clue
Gotta find something better
Something better to do
Something so exciting
Im into something new
You piece together the whole thing
Gives u something to use

Maybe i should practice it one more time
Maybe im afraid what it might do
Maybe it might upset someone
Maybe that's what its supposed to do

Pull it from the bottom
It begins to change
Find another existance
Thats what ure trying to say?

Im not pushin u out
Im not pushin u off
Im not pushin u out
Im not pushin u

All of the lands are terribly restless
With tellin u what to do
But u go bak to the land
Where ure defensless
They act just like me and u

Look what u've dont to me
Look what i've done to u
Look what they've done to us
Now were like noone else
Theyre laughin at u
Talkin about u
All these new things
All these new things
I found in use

And im workin so hard
When i think it is real
Everybody does once
Just to see how it feels
Its not a sensation
And its not for sale
So what can u call it now?

Keep em gotten
Theyll spoil u rotten
Keep em gotten
Keep em gotten
Just another freak
Be another freak
Be a freak

In a town without a name
There is no shame
No blame to claim
One fine day the pilgrims came
And made new rules for an old game
And i'm waiting for the garbage man to take you away
And i'm searching for my playground
So i can go and play
So they built a big smoke stack
Built a railroad track
They made the dirt roads black
And they did it behind your back
And now you pay their tax
Hoping something cracks
And i'm waiting for the garbage man
To take you away
And i'm searching for my playground
So i can go and play
From out of the dust came corrosion and rust
That made you look so cheap
There's nothing to have here
And nothing to hold here
And nothing that you can keep
Now understand this is no man's land
And its all that's left that's free
Where the kings of nothing rule my friend
And you can't make me leave
There's a billboard in the sky
Reflecting water in your eyes
This big city, this ghost town
Will come crawling to the ground
And i'm waiting for the hurricane to blow you away
And i'm searching for my twister
To twist you into shape
Now my speach is said and done
The circus came, i had my fun
And the wasteland has been won
And the building has begun
And i'm waiting for the earthquake to shake you down
And i see my mother nature trying to drag you around
From out of the dust came
Corrosion and rust
That made you look so cheap
There's nothing to have here
And nothing to hold here
And nothing that you can keep
Now understand this is no man's land
And its all that's left that's free
Where the kings of nothing rule my friend
(then you can't make believe?)

Caterpillar crawling up the big phone pole
Is there somebody that you want to talk to?
You know that pretty soon you'll be able to fly
How is this going to affect you?
Do you think it might wreck you?
Your friends might reject you
Say you took it too far
You said you want to be want to be want to be want to be

Hooked on glossy pictures and drugs i've never seen
We'll treat you with advice from a fashion magazine
One day she just walked into that magazine
I wonder if she'll ever come back
And they all said she would crack
They said her mind was one track,
Said she took it too far
You said you want to be want to be want to be want to be
Closer to the stars

Every time you move your lips
Let me give you a few tips
Yesterday you were too young
Tomorrow you will be too old
To regret all the things you've done who're you trying to hustle ?
Somebody you wanna show your muscle?
Second hand excuses never went too far
What's this scene you're making?
Your ideas have been taken
We'll seek when you awaken alone in someone's car
You just stood there shaking, stood there shaking
They said you were faking

You said you want to be want to be want to be want to be
Closer to the stars
Closer to the stars
