Yesterday's newspapers Lyrics

I'm wide awake now

look into my eyes

For goodness sake now

Why's that a surprise

I've been going over many conversations

I've been pouring over my miscalculations

I've been busy I guess that's wrong

I should have seen that all along

What's the point of warring factions

Why's the outcome smaller than the actions

Shouldn't this be one collective

Instead of being ineffective?

You've got no idea I'm just waiting here

You're just not sincere you've got no idea

Who comes out the proudest

Those that shout the loudest?

I'm not going over yesterday's newspapers

That's all dead and gone

I'm not interested in any of your old capers

I'm trying here to move on

I'm half asleep now I'm sure I've done my thinking

I took the whole lot in without even blinking

I've been going through all the implications

I've been counting up all the stipulations

I've been easy

That's how I am

I've been doing

Everything I can

What's the point of firing blanks?

I've got stones but you've got tanks

Shouldn't this be sorted out by talking?

You add it up and I'll do the chalking

You've got lots to learn you can wait your turn

You can crash and burn you've got lots to learn

Who comes out on top

And who says when to stop?

I'm not going over yesterday's newspapers that's all dead and gone

I'm not interested in any of your old capers I'm trying here to move on

I'm not going over yesterday's newspapers that's all in the past

I'm not interested in yesterday's newspapers they're not meant to last
