Lyrics

Squares

I seen the demons
But they didn't make a sound
They tried to reach me
But I lay upon the ground
I seen the people
But they didn't make a sound
They tried to reach me
But I gave the run around
I reached for feelings
But they didn't make a sound
They tried to reach me
But I lay upon the ground
So, miles and miles of squares
Where's the feeling there?
Still nobody cares
For miles and miles of squares
Daydream, I fell asleep amid the flowers
Daydream, I fell asleep amid the flowers
I seen the demons
But they didn't make a sound
They tried to reach me
But I lay upon the ground
I seen the people
But they didn't make a sound
They tried to reach me
But I gave the run around
Daydream, I fell asleep amid the flowers
Daydream, I fell asleep amid the flowers
So, miles and miles of squares
Where's the feeling there?
Still nobody cares
For miles and miles of squares
Daydream, I fell asleep amid the flowers
Daydream, I fell asleep amid the flowers
Daydream, I fell asleep amid the flowers
Daydream, I fell asleep amid the flowers
