/smashing young man/
collective soul

 

 

Begger's description
Of what I've been missing
Exploit your position
Don't think I didn't listen
Hey, I hope your feeling
A little better now

Success is so tragic
Pain is your gadget
Your tongue's just lashing
Just bitching by habit
Hey, I hope your feeling
A little purer now
Hey, I hope your feeling
Securer now

Help me, I plea
I don't understand
Your ways and your means
You smashing young man
Help me to see
The good you have planned
You're wearing me thin
You smashing young man

You preach synthetic-like
Peace is an oversight
It's nothing to ignite
Your self-lit spotlight
Hey, I hope your feeling
A little special now
Hey, I want to tell you
I think your special now

(Chorus)

I don't recall asking for guidence
I don't recall wanting to
I don't recall bowing before you
But I'm so impressed
With the kindness in your attitude

(Chorus twice)
