lyrics

I often wonder, how many others, feel the same
So torn asunder, another number, another game
You design your own decline
And you follow (down)
You walk the line of right and crime
It’s hard to swallow

Things merely are, as you imagine them
Things merely are, as you imagine them

A Bedlamite says goodnight
To the Open City
Take a ride on Electra-Glide
In Blue Rhapsody

So there’s another, undercover, Uberman
Who neither wonders or even bothers to pretend
To rely on peace of mind
To discover (nothing)
Satisfied with where he lies
And the bus he’s under

Things merely are, as you imagine them
Things merely are, as you imagine them
Things merely are, as you imagine them
Things merely are, as you imagine them
