Thinking in square rooms a human without illusions Sad strains on a sad face is that what we've come to? Is the world bold this love old moving nowhere and it's gonna cold. The wind stops the clouds go we're all alone. Oh Oh I know I can see those. Oh oh I know I can see those. I can feel those I can see those. Ohl oh square rooms oh oh square rooms. They don't listen they don't care if a man is in despair. Oh oh square rooms oh oh square rooms. ... Walks long and long clears the vision of one with one And you still move me you undo me like you've always done. But I realize now we've not made you out of words now Just you and me just you and me until the end of time. Oh oh I know I can see those. . . . Oh oh square rooms oh oh square rooms. ... Oh oh square rooms oh oh square rooms. ... Oh Oh square rooms oh oh square rooms. ...
