Lyrics
Take it to the town
Why do I even try to understand
What object is this
The game's begun
The only one
Somehow I can't explain what its all about
Why its understood
The game's begun
The only one
What object is this
When a rebel stands
For something good
Take it to the town
Bring tears to my eyes
Why can't I see what these people see
What object is this
The shining sun
Is on my back
Somehow I found out in vain what the mystery was
Why it's understood
The raging sea
Listens to me
What object is this
When a rebel stands
For something good
Take it to the town
Bring tears to my eyes
My mistakes give me freedom to go on
Nobody can see through me like you do
Why can't I just take you by the hand
What object is this
The desert sand
Is on my feet
Somehow I think that I'll gain from your innocence
From your destiny
The yellow moon
The hollow breeze
What object is this
When a rebel stands
For something good
Take it to the town
Bring tears to my eyes
