Lyrics
Chased by fools in a world of their own
Feeling pursued by foolish individuals in their own world.
Pushing aside oil the signs that inspire
Ignoring the signs that provide inspiration.
Avoiding the art, to create a new issue
Avoiding artistic expression to create new problems or challenges.
Someone with handcuffs who's chained to the past
Describing someone with handcuffs, symbolizing being tied to the past.
If I'm changing then I'm changing
Emphasizing the process of personal change.
Take off your mask there's no place in my desk file
Encouraging someone to reveal their true self, rejecting pretense.
For someone who reasons - regardless of new styles
Dismissing individuals who reason based on popular trends.
Settled on a handshake, my first mistake
Reflecting on a mistake made through a casual agreement.
It's my life and I say
Asserting control over one's own life.
What for this, this what for?
Questioning the purpose or reason for certain actions.
I don't need those looks so pick your face off the floor
Rejecting judgmental looks and encouraging self-respect.
Justice may prove we should wait not provoke
Considering the potential consequences of seeking justice.
To entertain must we stick to the rules?
Pondering the necessity of conforming to rules for entertainment.
If I'm changing oh won't you please let go
Expressing a desire to be allowed to change without resistance.
Trapped by rules ira world that could breathe
Feeling restricted by societal rules in a world that could be free.
Choking the spark, that creates -- am I signing a new lease?
Questioning the suppression of creativity and the potential for a new beginning.
Ask yourself why before raising dead issues
Encouraging self-reflection before resurrecting past issues.
You are someone who's lost touch and died in the clasp
Describing someone who has lost touch and succumbed to a grip or influence.
I settled for a handshake my first mistake
Reflecting on a previous mistake involving a casual agreement.
It's my life and I say
Reiterating the assertion of personal control and autonomy.
What for this, this what for
Repeating the questioning of the purpose or reason for certain actions.
I don't need those looks so pick your face off the floor
Reaffirming the rejection of judgmental looks and the importance of self-respect.
Justice may say we should wait not provoke
Revisiting the consideration of potential consequences in seeking justice.
To entertain must we stick to the rules?
Reiterating the questioning of conforming to rules for entertainment.
If I'm changing oh won't you please let go (repeat)
Expressing the desire for acceptance in the process of changing (repeat).
