lyrics

nothing to do nowhere to go
I'm doing my rounds
without eyes with no ears
and no mouth
slicing up hours
into pointless appointments
sitting on chairs
that will not take me anywhere

where's my place
I'm floating in a meaningless space
where's my place
I'm trying to hold onto your face
I'm trying to hold onto your face

the curtain's drawn
the oxygen's gone from under this mask
the face on TV is screaming at me
with no voice
wrapping the moments
into toothless excuses
a show of cards
at the casino for the blind

where's my place
I'm floating in a meaningless space
where's my place
I'm trying to hold onto your face

where's the hunger
the danger the gold
where's the passion
the brazen and bold

i'm trying to hold onto your face
I'm trying to hold onto your face
