Brian Eno
Crosseyed and Painless
[Verse 1]
Lost my shape, trying to act casual
Can't stop, I might end up in the hospital
Change my shape, I feel like an accident
They're back to explain their experience
[Chorus]
Isn't it weird? Looks too obscure to me
Wasting away, that was their policy
[Verse 2]
I'm ready to leave, I push the facts in front of me
Facts lost, facts are never what they seem to be
Nothing there, no information left of any kind
Lifting my head, lo-lo-looking for the danger signs
[Chorus]
There was a line, there was a formula
Sharp as a knife, facts cut a hole in us
Thеre was a line, therе was a formula
Sharp as a knife, facts cut a hole in us
[Bridge]
Still waiting
I'm still waiting
I-I'm still waiting
I-I'm still waiting
I-I'm still waiting
I-I'm still waiting
I-I'm still waiting
I-I'm still waiting
[Chorus]
And the feeling returns whenever we close our eyes
Lifting my head, looking around inside
[Verse 3]
The Island of Doubt, it's like the taste of medicine
Working by hindsight, got the message from the oxygen
Making a list, find the cost of opportunity
Doing it right, facts are useless in emergencies
[Chorus]
The feeling returns whenever we close our eyes
Lifting my head, looking around inside
[Bridge]
Facts are simple and facts are straight
Facts are lazy and facts are late
Facts don't come with points of view
Facts don't do what I want 'em to do
Facts just twist the truth around
Facts are living turned inside out
Facts are getting the best of them
Facts are nothing on the face of things
[Outro]
I'm still waiting (I'm waiting for you)
I'm still waiting (I'm waiting for you)
I'm still waiting (I'm waiting for you)
I'm still waiting (I'm waiting for you)
I'm still waiting
I'm still waiting
I'm still waiting (Open the door)
I'm still waiting (I always want more)
I'm still waiting (I always want more)
I'm still waiting (Honey, I'm still waiting)
I'm still waiting
I'm still waiting
I'm still
