Steven Wilson - Eyewitness Lyrics

Eyewitness Lyrics

You’re always an eyewitness to Oh all the change all the change Never feeling the pain

You’re never the one to speak up

Oh, keeping quiet, keeping quiet

With a god given right

You’re always the bridesmaid aren’t you?

Yeah, you’re the last to be asked

Never up to the task

You know when to keep your head down

Oh go along with the throng

And you can’t go wrong

Do as you’re told, don’t get involved

(Cos we’re gonna make it happen anyway)

Now take your meds and stay in bed

(It’s all going to happen to you anyway)

You’ll never be hoodwinked will you?

No, won’t decide, won’t decide

Never taking a side

You’re always an eyewitness true

Yeah, laying low, laying low

But you end up alone

Well the world outside it bites

And there and complications that you have no need to fight

(need to fight, need to fight)

And there’s a place where the future hides

(in every stranger’s eyes)

Bearing witnesses

You’re moving at the pace of drifting cloud

Giving nothing back

You’re hiding in plain sight among the crowd

Are you sick of waking up 

To find the world just changed again?

(changed again, changed again)

And it’s got so bad that you can’t figure out

Where to lay the blame?

(lay the blame, lay the blame)
