lyrics

You seem fawning from the outside in a very wry way
So loving, so tender, but so bitter anyway
So understanding though critical, radical
Embodied serenity with hysterical abilities

Someday, somehow, you had intuition,
Someday, somehow
You stayed, you spied, to dump your frustration
You stayed, you tried

Far-sighted most of the time but childish in many ways
So confident at first sight as you put yourself down
You seem so happy though feeling sad, going mad
Embodied lightness with physical boundaries

The color of your gleaming eye
Flavor of an inner lie

Someday, somehow, you had intuition,
Someday, somehow
You stayed, you spied, to dump your frustration
You stayed, you tried
