EYEWITNESS - Steven Wilson

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, keep it quiet, keep it quiet

With you’re god-given right

You’re always the bridesmaid aren’t you

Yeah, always the last to be asked

Never up to the task

You know when to keep your head down

Oh, go along with the swarm

And you can’t go wrong

Do as you’re told, don’t get involved

Cause we’re gonna make it happen anyway

Now take your meds and stay in bed

It’s all gonna 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 it’s true

Yeah, laying low, laying low

But you end up alone

Well the world outside it bites and there are 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 suave design)

Burying witnesses

You’re moving at the pace of drifting cloud

Giving nothing back

You’re hiding in plain sight and underground

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)
