Chain of Circumstance — текст песни (camper van beethoven)

So I thought that you knew the question you were asking me to answer

Now I find in your indifference you never bothered with what the words meant

Youre pulling, youre headless of the slack that forms behind you

Youre forging, you make another link in the chain of circumstance



Your mouth made sounds and words, your lips formed them well

But to discern the content was hard for me to tell

And falling, you fail sometimes to convince me of sincerity

And with that pulling in me I build another link for you to add



Oh my friend, you know I love you, but you make me crazy

Oh my friend, you know I hate it, but you know it cant stay

Oh my friend, you know I love you, but you make me crazy



Now only time together pushes toward my place to answer

This musics purgatory awaits its end, times special dancer

Youre doing just as well as a jewel in the mud

Youll do just a well when your surviving dust ascends into heaven

Chorus
