Pleased to make acquaintance, try to make your appointments
Can’t hide your disappointment, there’s a fly in the ointment
All I can see is your devotion
body and mind are always in motion
shaking your feathers, try to control the weather
It's not easy to remember we are together
Been walking here all morning, there’s nobody around
I stumble on your shoelace and I fall upon the ground
Just 30 seconds later, I’m surrounded by your lies
Got to find some other way, to keep you in my life
All I can see is your frustration
When you're tossing me that righteous indignation
It’s not easy when you walk on the rocks of division
It’s filling your mind with hatred and derision
Been telling myself you‘ll find some introspection
Please to make acquaintance, try to make your appointments
I feel like I could fall down, but I’m never gonna make a sound
You are sleeping in the daytime, I’d like to get away
I tried and it’s not easy, but I’m gonna do it today
All I can see is you’re with me now
It's easier than I thought just to allow
I’m pleased to receive all of your emotion
I’m telling you it’s part of my devotion
Just listening to all your crazy notions
