lyrics

music and lyrics by Rachel Cox and David First

You're let down again
The things you can do, you delay
You want what you can't have, the way you play it

So certain yesterday
But now you're in the schism cloud
You want to change your mind again and again and again and again

Shock away
You're in love with illusion
Shock away
You stay in the revolving door
Is it inside, is it outside
How can it be when you can't even see?
Is it inside, is it outside
How can it be when you can't even see?

Cut it off again
But you still want it every day
You think you're in the film with the happy ending

But the bad guy seems okay
The hero leaves his head at the door
He wants to change his mind again and again and again and again

Shock away
He's in love with illusion
Shock away
He stays in the revolving door
Is it inside, is it outside
How can it be when you can't even see? Woo hoo hoo
Is it inside, is it outside
How can it be when you can't even see?

Hope for a holiday ride
Open for another round, around, and around.

Repeat chorus
