Lyrics I Am Someone Looking for Something - Swordplay

I Am Someone Looking for Something

I am someone looking for something
But I promise I would never interrupt your regular programming for nothing
But something so easy to miss it bleeds into the scenery
See life up close.
Get wired into the machinery
Someone give me exactly what I’ve been needing
I have recurring dreams of making graffiti, the future repeating, repeating
And it keeps feeding into the data stream
I see familiar faces but the visions are fleeting
Calculators under my eyelids
But no notable Nobel prizes on my horizons
And no sight of any island
I go to sleep nightly in this place and don’t even know where my own light is
Half the energy we try with is electrical pulses controlled by scientists
Disconnect the appliances
One day they will come and find you, and beside you
Patiently along the way angels may guide you
I’ve been in the slingshot.
I’m ready to sleep
This is a musical chairs game and I remove my seat
My cannons are left out burning on a beach
And I am quiet only because I lost my speech
And I never spoken very long with these ghosts
And never paid that much attention to my horoscope
My heart stops beating if you get too close
Release me.
Please let me go
This is a temporary version of something permanent
Turn up the sermons and laugh.
Shut up and learn from it
