Bright Eyes - Beginner's Mind lyrics

Hold on tight beginners mind The wheel is spinning too Fast to make your move The worst must be a**umed Oh how they'll try to pull and pry Away what you know now Beat and beat it out Leave a drum that makes no sound A snuff film on a jumbotron For all the world to see A co*ktail napkin epitaph Some psycho babel telegram Message written in the sand The tide rolls in Swear you'll do the opposite Of all those tangled hypocrites Who say that the experiment has failed Don't go there You're getting nowhere You're getting nowhere Stay a while my inner child I'd like to learn your tricks Know what makes you tick Nurse you when you're sick Oh how you've grown so cynical Hard lines carved in your face The sunshine's so cliche Just like love and pain You tried your best the rorschach test But there's just nothing to see Heard terabytes of perfect pitch Some universal elegance Stack the seventh and the fifth Along the bridge Swear you'll be the opposite Of all the stilted hypocrites You know what made you infamous to them Don't you You keep starting over Keep starting over Hold on tight beginner's mind The currents far too strong It'll carry you along Till you're just like everyone Stay a while my inner child I'd like to learn your trick To know what make you tick To nurse you when you're sick
