Inside down and upside out
You're dizzy spinning me around
Oh, Meri, are there days ahead
Your ancient, vacant vows 'come full instead
I know there is a strand
Through your nervous system to that land
But when you say time is on our side
You can't look me in the eye
I can't keep up with misery, America
You play yourself in turns
And return
I can't sleep what with misery, America
Watchin' what's rehearsed
Getting worse
Getting worse
You take time's line to these days
And draw its end through past mistakes
To avoid the lessons learned
To leave roots and stems and stones unturned
I know, I know you could come around
But time's out
You can't give me illusions and say we're doing right
I've looked you in the eye
I can't keep up with misery America
You play yourself in turns
And return
I can't sleep what with misery America
Watchin' what's rehearsed
Getting worse
Getting worse
Oh Meri misery
Oh Meri misery
Oh Meri misery
Changes were to come, not undone now
Oh Meri misery
We're all running out of time
I can't keep up with misery America
You play yourself in turns
And return
I can't sleep what with misery America
What's been rehearsed
Is getting worse
What's been rehearsed
Is getting worse
