lyrics

How can you see
With your head in the ground
How can you hear
When you're runnin your mouth
How can you learn
What you think that you know
How can you talk
With nothin to show

If you think you can fly
Why don't you jump
Now's not the time to cry babe
The damage is done
I can go slow
So you understand
I'll tell you the truth and that's all I can do
So believe me

How can you laugh
When you're just a joke
How can you love
When you don't have a soul
How can you fuck
When you're fucked in the head
How can you live
Rock and roll is dead

If you think you can fly
Why don't you jump
Now's not the time to cry babe
The damage is done
I can go slow
So you understand
I'll tell you the truth and that's all I can do
So believe me

instrumental break
If you think you can fly
Why don't you jump
Now's not the time to cry babe
The damage is done
I can go slow
So you understand
I'll tell you the truth and that's all I can do
So believe me

If you think you can fly
Why don't you jump
Now's not the time to cry babe
The damage is done
I can go slow
So you understand
I'll tell you the truth and that's all I can do
So believe me
I'll tell you the truth and that's all I can do
So believe me
I'll tell you the truth and that's all I can do
So believe me
I'll tell you the truth and that's all I can do
So believe me
I'll tell you the truth and that's all I can do
So believe me
