Dialogue Paroles

she points - i stare - but i can hardly see it through
she points - i stare - she needs me unaware
i point - you stare - but you may never see me through
i point - you stare - i love you unaware

hey rebel how long would you think it takes a running man
to kill off every king and every fucking president
to light up all the golden steppingstones that come along
in your icon-wonderland
hey rebel how long would you think it takes a common rise
to get a million people up and out and organized
to overthrow the ever common party line
while we're paralyzed

[chorus]

hey rebel how long would you think it takes a common friend
to make this world of silence really, really deafening
i'm bewildered by the menace of your energy
reaching for my medicine nothing is like shedding rulers - decay and - demise
gushing and gushing from all the wounds of our camouflage
trip over the government - the monarch - the entourage
[i stare - the monarch and the entourage]?

i stare at all the hungry hands - awaiting me to take the stand
i stare at every flooding cage - awaiting me to take the stage
awaiting me to take the stage - and so i will

[chorus]

i stare - the monarch and the entourage
