lyrics

Truth Seems Stranger To Me

I was looking at the world through the bottom of a glass
and it looked pretty fine to me
a little fuzzy in the middle where my eyes don’t meet
but to tell you the truth
that’s not what I wanted to see

I was looking at the world through a ring of smoke
and it looked pretty high to me
a little weird around the edges where my mind won’t reach
but to tell you the truth
it wouldn’t be the buddha I seek

I was looking at the world through a telescope
that was rolled from a five dollar bill
if things go better with a little bit of hope
you better cut to the chase
and pray to your god that they will

I was looking at the world through a prophecy
and it looked pretty strange to me
with a hole in the middle
where they never solve the riddle
but to tell you the truth
the truth seems stranger to me
