Lyrics
I think there's a whole lot more to it than what meets the eye
Sure I could say screw it but something in me would lie
And if I just blew it, would it all go up in flames yeah
It only makes the heat grow hotter and that's the name of this game
Pre Chorus:
The closer we get, the harder we fall
The more we got the more we gotta have it all
As the metaphors drip with a succulent throb
Everybody wants it, but we're all getting robbed
Chorus:
Everybody want a laid back job with good pay
Everybody wants someone to talk to who wants to get laid
Everybody wants an honest mechanic & cool live-in maid
Everybody wants a perfect golden tan
While Livin' In the Shade
Bridge:
Just when we think we got it covered
That's when we get stripped bare
Taking comfort in another, till we see ourselves there
We're all searching for love
Love that's blind enough to see
We're all wanting to grow yeah yeah
But we're doing it slowly
While we're Living In The Shade
Cause there's a whole lot more to it
Than what meets the eye
And as soon as we see through it
Our soul learns to fly
Through the time that we spend here
Acting out minds
Dancing out our karma
Till our Spiral of time unwinds
Pre Chorus:
The closer we get, the harder we fall
The more we got the more we gotta have it all
As the metaphors drip with a succulent throb
Everybody wants it, but we're all getting robbed
Chorus:
Everybody want a laid back job with good pay
Everybody wants someone to talk to who wants to get laid
Everybody wants an honest mechanic & cool live-in maid
Everybody wants a perfect golden tan
While Livin' In the Shade
