Lyrics
Everyone's been seated in the dark
Everyone's been party to a ruse here now and then
There's more that's hidden away
Behind what's on display
Everyone's been seated in the dark
Everyone's been dangling on a string
Everyone's had that experience before
It was the clarity
That so appealed to me
Everyone's been dangling on a string
Chorus:
Standing on the outside
Looking for the gold prize
Wonder why the lights no longer shine
Standing on the outside
Looking for the gold prize
Wonder why the lights no longer shine
Everyone's been standing on the edge
Everyone's been tangling with the wolves
There at the door
It was a metamorphosis, or just a shift I guess
Everyone's been standing on the edge
Solo....chorus.....out
