Not Moving - Intellectual

[Tekst til "Not Moving"]

I was drifting 'round, I was feeling like wood

And I see that it was stuck with every change of my mood

I can see the shores, but the distance was fixed

No matter how much I steer toward the beaches I missed

Ah-ah-ah-ah

Oh how we stand still though

We like to think that we're moving

I was hitting the reefs, I was twirling around

I was just like the leaves, I was bound for the ground

I could see the lighthouse but the light was the sun

It was then that I knew what it was that I'd done

I had followed a map that I didn't write

I was set on a course that wasn't right

I had taken all the easy turns

But accomplishment is a feeling that you have to earn

Oh how we stand still though

We like to think that we're moving

Oh how we stand still though

We like to think that we're moving
