John Frusciante "The Past Recedes" |
And then the past recedes And I won't be involved The effort to be free Seems pointless from above You're looking down at me I'd rather stay below Than have you staring up at me There's no where I want to go Ay, this business of how long we try to stay alive Why to be here you've first got to die So I gave it a try And what do you know Time was so long ago And thinks come back you see To where they don't belong And every drop of sea Is the whole ocean I lied to the greatest thieves About anything and everything I'm a figure of forgotten speech I'm out of reach Oh, I can't play it safe But I might just in case Oh, I'm disguised as a reaching hand I'm a working man I don't understand why clockout Comes so slow every time That's one line I stay right behind That's one line I stay right behind Yeah...
