Hanging bones like paper dolls
And posing by museum walls
A forest of quotation marks
Where minnows masquerade as sharks
And every line is well rehearsed
And everyone in line is first, it's
Almost like you really care
Almost like you really hear
Almost like you're really there
Almost like you're really here
Dressed just like a skeptic
But you tow the party line
You have no dialectic but
You know the secret sign
And every line is well rehearsed
And everyone in line is first, it's
Almost like you really care
Almost like you really hear
Almost like you're really there
Almost like you're really here
♪
Follow you, they follow you
Follow you, they follow you
Outskirts and concentric rings (follow you, they follow you)
Shallow cuts and childish things (follow you, they follow you)
Scratch the surface just like this (follow you, it followed you)
Shadows of a class dismissed (follow you, it followed you)
Followed you, it followed you
Followed you, it followed you
Followed you, it followed you
Followed you, it followed you
Followed you, it followed you
Followed you, it followed you
While it's no surprise
I'll try to be kind to your disguise
Just another plot to subdivide
Passenger just waiting for a ride
Down around the corner, now they say
That you never ever saw the train leave without you
♪
Try to place a call to that picture
Hanging on the wall, same old message
No one there at all, there's no answer
Scripture known by rote, by this time there's
Nothing left to quote but your skin a
Scribbled sheet for notes, incoherent
Almost like you really care
Almost like you really hear
Almost like you're really there
Almost like you're really here
