The Great Lost People

Stare into the face
Of the great lost people
Passing by
Listen to the breath
Of the old gray cat
Strayed by time
Look into the eyes
Of these great lost people
Easy recognize
These are lonely people
Lost or tossed aside
Are the great lost people
Of the times
When the time has come and gone
Mary will be looking on
Three-second glances weren't enough for her today
She wanted more from me
But more she'll have to wait
I find
I've tried
I've wasted half of my time
In bed
At school
Doing things I don't want to do
Only waiting for love
Waiting for this visage of love
I find
I've tried
I've wasted half of my time
In bed
In school
Doing things I don't want to do
Getting sick of second chances
Lay down
Lay down
Doing things you don't want to do
Lay down
Gimme something
Gimme something
Gimme something
Stare into the face
Of the great lost people
Passing by
Listen to the breath
Of the old gray cat
Strayed by time
Look into the eyes
Of these great lost people
Easy recognize
These are lonely people
Lost or tossed aside
Are the great lost people
Of the times
