Smashing Pumpkins - Alienation

So say, there goes my wishing tree

I then chose this outer space

And the idyllic swing on which I'd swung from

Exchanged for Pyrric disgrace

All hail, there's no spinning back

From an orbit laid in vain

From this empire man cannot name

Alienation, alienation

Free the morning, free revelation

Alienation, oh

Of thee I sing

For every one of you

There dwells a trillion stars

As with any true regret

Truth gets thumped by charge

Which deigns how I've arrived

Via an old, archaic sling-shot

Alienation, alienation

Free the morning, free revelation

Alienation, alienation

Mourn the movement, fear penetration

Alienation, oh

Of thee I sing

Yet I sing, how does a wishing tree run dry?

Child, you stand remembrance in my mind

The embrace of those who loved you cannot die

Safe beyond the regents and their hive

Safe from clutch of jackals and plus'd-mind crimes

Never yielding

For every one of you

There dwells a trillion stars

Lighting way from truth to absolute

Truth gets thumped by charge

Which deigns how I've arrived

As one atom 'tis but a grain of sand

And those lost are never forgotten

Yet may return

Home is where you start

And end your days in alienation

Alienation, alienation

Free the morning, free revelation

Alienation, alienation

Mourn the movement, fear penetration

Alienation, oh

Of thee I sing

Of thee I sing

Of thee I sing

Of thee I sing

Of thee I sing

Of thee I sing

Of thee I sing
