Living in lonely desperate times 
You’re keeping me far enough and way behind 
And never do I know 

What you think and do you feel 
Are your fires burning 
You keeping your morals nice and tight 
While keeping your mind all open wide 
What’s in the future do you suppose? 
I may have opened up your mind 

You seemed to know just what you’re doing 
But you signed and changed your tune 
And I’m out loud and I’m not selling myself out
and that’s the truth 

Keepin’ Him low-key just because 
Reason too cool to wear the thorn and cross 
The direction not His course 

What you think and do you feel 
Are your fires burning 
You keeping your morals nice and tight 
While keeping your mind all open wide 
What’s in the future do you suppose? 
I may have opened up your mind

You seemed to know just what you’re doing
But you signed and changed your tune
And I’m out loud and I’m not selling myself out
and that’s the truth
