You got caught in the moment
Armed like the self assured
A bellyful of blown up ideals
Art as it's own reward

You look back at your future now
To see how time erodes
But if the world would take you whole
You'd be first to swallow

Round up all the weirdos
All loners/freaks and anti heroes
One in a million

You got stuck in the moment
The same arms tied you down
Your pockets full of burnt out idols
Art as a waste of time

The “great pretence of common sense”
A joke you always remembered
You gave up more than you know
You give up more than you know

But if the world would take you whole
You'd be first to swallow

Round up all the weirdos
All loners/freaks and anti heroes
One in a million

The silent urge against the herd
it runs a course through your life
Oh never to be heard
Haunted by the shadows for most of your life

The “great pretence of common sense”
A joke you always remembered
You gave up more than you know
You give up more than you know

But if the world would take you whole
You'd be first to swallow

Round up all the weirdos
All loners/freaks and anti heroes
One in a million
