Soma is what they would take when
Hard times opened their eyes
Saw pain in a new way
High stakes for a few names
Racing against sun beams
Losing against their dreams
In your eyes
And I am stop and go
In your eyes, see
I am stop and go
In your eyes
Let's go
When I saw her for the first time
Lips moved as her eyes closed
Heard something in his voice
"And I'll be there", he says
Then he walks out
Somehow
He was trying
Too hard to be like them
And I am stop and go
In your eyes
And I am stop
Oh, darling, let me go
Tried it once and they liked it,
Then tried to hide it
Says, I've been doing this 25 years
But I'm not listening no more.
And these friends, they keep asking for more.
But that's it.
