Lyrics
[Intro] 1, 2, 1, 2 [Verse 1] Know a man, his face seemed pulled and tense Like he's riding on a motorbike in the strongest winds So I approach with tact Suggest that he should relax, but he's always moving much too fast Said he'll see me on the flip side of this trip he's taking for a ride [Chorus] He's been taking too much on There he goes with his perfectly unkempt clothes There he goes [Verse 2] He's yet to come back but I see his picture It doesn't look the same up on the rack We go way back I wonder about his insides It's like his thoughts are too big for his size [Chorus] He's been taken, where I don't know Off he goes with his perfectly unkempt hope There he goes [Verse 3] And now I rub my eyes for he has returned Seems my preconceptions are what should have been burned For he still smiles. And he's still strong Nothing's changed but the surrounding bullshit. That has grown And now he's home and we're laughing like we always did My same old, same old friend Until a quarter to ten. I saw the strain creep in He seems distracted and I know just what is going to happen next Before his first step he is off again
