Maya - The Parlotones

All I know is that the days are long

And all I know is that the nights go on and on and on

And all I know is that time will fly

And that the years will pass me by

But I don’t care what they say

It’s just Maya anyway

No I don’t care what they say

It’s just Maya at the end of the day

So take your books, knowledge of old

Believe everything you were told

Prize your possessions, board all your gold

Repeat the things that you were told when you were young

All I know is that I’ve had my fill

I’ve had enough of theories

I’ve swallowed every pill

And every book upon my shelf

Is just words until I see it for myself

If we’re just actors and life’s a play

Then it’s just Maya getting in our way

The outside world leads us astray

And it’s just Maya at the end of the day

So take your books, knowledge of old

Believe everything you were told

Prize your possessions, board all your gold

Repeat the things that you were told when you were young
