"New Realization" lyrics - SUBLIME

The time has come
To reach a new realization 'tween me and you
Time to clear the rumors, sensations
And things that just are not true

Well I thought I heard you behind me
With a knife straight for my back

It's quite clear that I'm back in the swing of living
Although I might not be on the right track
Oh, thought I might drown but it's hard to keep a good man-

Downtown's wheres you'll find me
Through some ill-gotten hand
Although I never listen girl, I damn well understand
And you think, I'm so damn feeble
I can't see through your lies, you're just a crock of shit
With a pretty smile, and I refuse to compromise
Oh, you're givin' me such a heavy, heavy, heavy load

You may hold some vision of truth, if truth can be found in a lie
Maybe some grain of inspiration, for somethin' that's deep inside
Oh, tears running down your face, just screaming "look me in the eye"
Well I'm looking straight at your twisted face
And it's enough to make me cry

Oh, passions there for those who want to
Pay the price of loving you
In more ways than one
Wrapped around your finger
But I think my time has come
But I never can be too sure, 'cause I like to have a little fun
Oh, what fun it would be to blow my mind and fall into the sun

A mind is a precious thing to taste
