| 作词 : Smither | |
| Forms are loosely fitting | |
| Jury still are sitting | |
| Sense of duty keeps us all in motion | |
| Prison sirens wailing | |
| That security is failing | |
| Do not inspire a lifetime of devotion | |
| No one will sympathize | |
| No one really tries | |
| They need a faith that leads them like a drum | |
| And I can hear it pounding down among the ruins | |
| Sad to say, I don't think I'm the only one. | |
| I awoke and someone spoke | |
| They asked me in a whisper | |
| If all my dreams and visions had been answered | |
| And I don't know what to say | |
| I never even pray | |
| I just feel the pulse of universal dancers | |
| They'll waltz me till I die | |
| They'll never tell me why | |
| I never stop to ask them where we're going | |
| Yes, but the holy, the profane | |
| Are all helplessly insane | |
| Wishful, hopeful, never even knowing. | |
| And they asked if I believe | |
| And do the angels really grieve | |
| Or is it all a comforting invention? | |
| It's just like gravity, I said | |
| It's not a product of my head | |
| It doesn't speak, but nonetheless commands attention | |
| And I don't care what it means | |
| Or who decorates the scenes | |
| The problem is more with my sense of pride | |
| Because it keeps me thinking "me" | |
| Instead of what it is to be | |
| I'm not a passenger, I am the ride | |
| I'm not a passenger | |
| I am the ride |
