Parabol - Back & Forth Lyrics

Each of us has one set of eyes,
Cut one out, and you'll bleed dry
I tried to see through your deceptive lies
I think I found out where the cancer lies

You lead the path of a righteous man
Working honest and true, doing what you can
Never the one behind the trigger
The only thing to see is that you linger


You've said you've changed,
you'd be the one,
who differs from the
same old crowd

But still you find a way
But still you find a way

You've said you've changed,
you'd be the one,
who differs from the
same old crowd

But still you find a way
But still you find a way


It comes in waves, or so they say
Back and forth to the plain old game
The look in your eyes gives you away
A deer in the headlights, who's gone astray

Why keep up the pace? Why turn the stone?
Do you still search for the feeling of home?
Lost to the cause, lost to yourself
In everyday life, you just couldn't commit


Back and forth we go once more
This is it, I've had enough
Back and forth we go once more
Again I walk the plank and freeze

Back and forth we go once more
This is it, I've had enough
Back and forth we go once more
Yet again I walk the plank and freeze


You've said you've changed,
you'd be the one,
who differs from the
same old crowd

But still you find a way
But still you find a way

You've said you've changed,
you'd be the one,
who differs from the
same old crowd

But still you find a way
But still you find a way

You've said you've changed,
you'd be the one,
who differs from the
same old crowd

But still you find a way
But still you find a way

You've said you've changed,
you'd be the one,
who differs from the
same old crowd

But still you find a way
But still you find a way


Each of us has one set of eyes,
Cut one out, and you'll bleed dry
I tried to see through your deceptive lies
I think I found out where the cancer lies

You lead the path of a righteous man
Working honest and true, doing what you can
Never the one behind the trigger
The only thing to see is that you linger
