Echolyn - As the World (live) lyrics

I'm stretching my ears they're open and not withstanding To rhythmic syncopation, harmonic dissonance I move to a groove that will never stop swinging And I sing to a song that never ends I'm pushing my brain to think a little harder To learn from the simple and question the complex If logic and reason are the gods that you follow Then you'll drown in your soul's emptiness It's too easy to "be in" with a platform It's too easy to know what to say It's harder to sit when everyone else is standing To shake your head as the world just nods away I'm raising my voice to shout a little louder To answer your questions and ease the tension In my argument arrogance has no friend And I hate to be cushioned in a fight It's too easy to "be in" with a hair style It's to easy to go with the flow It's hard to see through a haze of popularity To shake your head as the world just nods away Fever high, blind man clapper Flag-waving monkey man Never hear past own mouth flappin' All the answers, palm of your hand Herd mover platform weaver Change topic, slight of hand Issue bender, big speech giver Power tie, and photo tan Ray: Fashions and fads a fictitious flirtation the foremost foundation to fit in Brett: Fashions and fads a flirting the foremost foundation fit it Chris: Fashions fads flirting foremost to fit in Ray: It's talk at the table the TV and tabloids the telephone trivia and talk show trash Brett: Talk at the table and tabloids telephone trivia talk show trash Chris: Talk at the table trivia talk show trash Sometimes we get caught up in making the right impression Is the commission really worth the sale that we pitch? I'm not really big on justifying intentions If it's good then let it grow On its own we'll soon be rich Turning as the world Turn a turn around turn around turn around Watch as the world turns around It's too easy to "be in" on the new wave It's too easy to know how to play It's harder to "be in" for the sake of your own being To shake your head as the world just nods away
