James - Walk Like You

You know more than you think you know,
This universe is in your eyes,
Inside the galaxies collide.

Which parent told you that you're slow?
My absent dad, my mum's control,
Schooled me to be a worker drone.

So this is it,
A life on earth,
We're made of stars,
We're made of dirt,
Unconsciousness,
We disconnect,
Tone deaf to calling.

We learn to walk like you,
Talk like you,
Oo-be-do,
Think like you, Whine like you,
Love like you in pieces.

You know more than you think you know,
Your DNA is pulsed by stars,
Reveal the cogs that wheel the show.

So this is it,
A universe of birth and death,
Love and neglect,
But we forget,
Dad's off on tour or in a meeting.

We will not walk like you,
Talk like you,
Oo-be-do,
Fight like you,
Screwed like you,
Break like you,
In pieces.

God knows I know no better
Easy to say that I can talk
I can talk
God knows I know no better
Easy to say that I can talk
(I can talk, I can talk, I can talk)
I can talk
(I can talk, I can talk, I can talk)
I can talk
(I can talk, I can talk, I can talk)

Welcome to our coming of age
To embrace all that we've become
Bored with your stories of pain
Shoot yourself with a ricochet
You don't know, you don't know, you don't know me
You don't know, you don't know, you don't know me

Let's inspire, let's inflame, create awe from our pain
Find a love that's as deep as it's holy
Let's inspire, let's inflame, create gods from our pain
Find a love that's as sweet as it's holy
Let's inspire, let's inflame, create dreams from our pain
Find a love that's as plain as it's holy
Let's inspire, let's inflame, create songs from our shame
Find a love that won't fade, love is holy

But I can talk
(I can talk, I can talk, I can talk)
I can talk
(I can talk, I can talk, I can talk)
I can talk
(I can talk, I can talk, I can talk)
I can talk
(I can talk, I can talk, I can talk)
