People tend to talk
FBI and all
These days you just don't know
Hidden cameras in the phones
Believe in what you like, electric hypnotize
Playin dirty tricks upon your eyes
Don't let it get you down, don't let it change your mind
We're gonna catch that train, we're gonna take a ride
We'll find a one horse town, beyond the distant rise
Where time keeps on, stars go by
People tend to fight
In schoolyards and the like
Tiny broken fists, atom bomb abyss
Ain't no one seem to know, just how far this all goes
For its dark and troubled times out on the road
Don't let it get you down, don't pay'em any mind
They built a great big wall, good thing you learned to fly
We'll send you right across, go tell the other side
Time keeps on, stars go by
People tend to see ghosts of you and me
Drifting through the fog, rabbits chasin dogs
Pretending not the care, like there's nothing really there
We were only apparitions in the air
Don't let it get you down, don't let'em see you cry
Hop on a grey hound bus, go on dry your eyes
Into the outstretched arms, under the mission lights
Time keeps on, stars go by
Time keeps on stars go by
Time keeps on, stars go by
There time keeps on, stars go by
