Along the way to close my eyes
I lost where I was going
the more it will spin
the more that I try
to stop my mind flowing away, away
to all that I despise
along the way to close my eyes
You can’t be let down if you don’t expect the world
expect to lay awake and by your sleeping girl
if somebody cares then there is no way you can tell
cursed consciousness is your private hell
Along the way to close my eyes
I lost where I was going
the more it will spin
the more that I try
to stop my mind flowing away, away
to all that I despise
along the way to close my eyes
Tick, tick, tick the clock bludgeons your mind
endlessly replaying times that were unkind
go away sun I’m not prepared for you today
it seems you are, it seems you are, huh!
Along the way to close my eyes
I lost where I was going
the more it will spin
the more that I try
to stop my mind flowing away, away
to all that I despise
along the way to close my eyes
Along the way to close my eyes
I lost where I was going
The more it will spin the more that I try
To stop my mind flowing away, away
To all that I despise
Along the way to close my eyes
You can’t be let down if you don’t expect the world
Expect to lay awake there by your sleeping girl
If somebody cares then there is no way you can tell
Cursed consciousness it’s your private hell
Along the way to close my eyes
I lost where I was going
The more it will spin the more that I try
To stop my mind flowing away, away
To all that I despise
Along the way to close my eyes
Tick tick tick the clock bludgeons your mind
Endlessly replaying times that were unkind
Go away sun I’m not prepared for you today
It seems you are it seems you are
Along the way to close my eyes
I lost where I was going
The more it will spin the more that I try
To stop my mind flowing away, away
To all that I despise
Along the way to close my eyes
Love this song so much, especially that guitar, and the harmonies between Nick and Sa's voices. I remember we played this song a lot in our art class, before winter break- and then on the last day of class.. Always reminds me of the end of the 90's and high school.
The chorus parts (..."to close my eyes...") always makes the hair stand up on my arms... goosebumps... weird, but those parts of this song are beautiful
I was 17 and had just gotten a CD player put in my car the day this album came out, so many great memories driving around town with this album on repeat!
