Somersaulting

[Verse 1]
I know what you're gonna say so don’t say it
Humming your sorry songs will ease your mind only for a while
We were nodding our heads in unison
We were too proud to notice where the crowd went wrong
In the middle of our somersaulting in a dizzy spin
How can we win when we’re faking?

[Chorus]
What seemed so real is now surreal
How we feel is beside the point
The golden kindergarten stars handed out if you play your part
It’s hard to grasp their dark design when you are spinning upside down
If you don’t land your somersault you’ll never spot the thunderbolt

How do you live just to survive?
Why do you deny your denial?
How do you feel when I’m around?

[Verse 2]
I know where you wanna go so don’t go there
Flying across the globe will please your eyes only for a while
There’s been plenty of us
Blind and stupid being to proud to say it all aloud
To speak our minds

[Chorus]
What seemed so real is now surreal
How we feel is beside the point
The golden kindergarten stars handed out if you play your part
It’s hard to grasp their dark design. you are spinning upside down
If you don’t land your somersault you’ll never spot the thunderbolt

How do you live just to survive?
Why do you deny your denial?
How do you feel when I’m around?
