Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Just give me the news
It can all be lies
Exciting over fair
Or the right thing at the right time
[Verse 2]
Everything is clear
Just how you described
The way it appears
A world possessed by the human mind
[Verse 3]
Then I think I smiled
Then I think you said, it's fine
And quietly I dressed
In a world completely possessed by the human mind
[Verse 4]
We're in awe of no one
We've none of their fear
Fighting's going nowhere
And we stay right here
[Verse 5]
Where everything is quiet
Little super dangerous
The shadow of the law and with colors of justice
[Verse 6]
Then I hope I smiled
Then I'm sure you said, it's fine
They got no interest in a world
Completely possessed by the human mind
[Verse 7]
Everything is quiet
Little super dangerous
Quiet enough to hear God
Rustling around in the bushes
[Verse 8]
Oh, but it was you
Girl, I was so afraid
You said, you shoulda seen the look on your face
[Verse 9]
Then I hope you laughed
Then I hope I said, it's fine
And quietly undressed in a world
Completely possessed by the human mind
[Verse 10]
Oh, it was you
Girl, I was so afraid
You said, you shoulda seen the look on your face
