A New Situation

From time to time
The tables turn
You cross a line
Get your fingers burnt
Suddenly is a new situation

From day to day
Dot to dot
Case to case
'til the chord is cut
Suddenly is a new situation

Everybody wants to believe they hold a ticket
To the train to the promised land
Everybody wants to believe it ain't no lie
One day i woke from a dream on a rocket
Coming back from another planet
Don't think i'm ever gonna understand
Why…

Nothing is what it used to be
These white walls are all new to me
Time is the doctor and i'm his patient
I don't know what he's done to me
A gentle push or brain surgery
It's gonna take some imagination
This new situation

From a to z
Through and through
The destiny
I thought i knew
Suddenly was an open ending

I learnt the trick
I did the time
My eyes fixed
On the finishing line
All it was was a new beginning

Everybody dreams of a happy ever after
And gold at the rainbows end
Everybody wants to believe it ain't no lie
Everybody wants the machine to run faster
Faster, out of hand
I don't think i'm ever gonna understand
Why…

Nothing is what it used to be
These white walls are all new to me
Time is the doctor and i'm his patient
I don't know what he's done to me
A gentle push or brain surgery
It's gonna take some imagination
This new situation

Nothing is what it used to be
These four walls are all new to me
Time is the doctor and i'm his patient
I don't know what he'll do to us
But things will change, i know that much
It's gonna take some imagination
This new situation
