| (Verse 1)
By letting matters slide The climb into decline is just one slow continuous motion Dangling in between Make way to the extreme from the accidental, to the conventional You become (Chorus) Someone who stands for something else By reason of association Never apply the message to self Implied behind the implication Someone who stands for something else By reason of association No thought to hear the message applied to find Behind the implication (Verse 2) Foxes in boxes, fear in my sphere Hunting and hiding, digressing each year Weeping and laughing, I'm gasping for air Stuck like an oyster, it's so unfair (Chorus) Someone who stands for something else By reason of association Never apply the message to self Implied behind the implication Someone who stands for something else By reason of association No thought to hear the message applied to find Behind the implication (Verse 3) Words in your hair, like voices underwater There's no escaping the destiny of repetition Between what you said and what you wanted Couldn't, shouldn't, didn't I really wanted to say you became (Chorus) Someone who stands for something else By reason of association Never apply the message to self Implied behind the implication Someone who stands for something else By reason of association No thought to hear the message applied to find Behind the implication (Verse 2) Foxes in boxes, fear in my sphere Hunting and hiding, digressing each year Weeping and laughing, I'm gasping for air Suppressed like a jester, with costume couture Seems so unfair (Chorus) Someone who stands for something else By reason of association Never apply the message to self Implied behind the implication Someone who stands for something else By reason of association No thought to hear the message applied to find Behind the implication (Outro) Someone who stands for something else Someone who stands for something else Someone who stands for something else By reason of association References |
