Telescope Lyrics - Singles - Cage The Elephant

In a far and distant galaxy 

Inside my telescope I see 

A pair of eyes look back at me 

He walks and talks and looks like me 

Sits around inside his house 

From room to room he moves about 

Fills his life with pointless things 

and wonders how it all turns out. 

Safe to say that 

I don't think you understand! 

There's nowhere left to turn 

Walls keep breaking 

Time is like a leaf in the wind 

Either it's time well spent 

or time I've wasted. 

Don't waste it.

Afraid of what the truth might bring 

He locks his doors and never leaves 

Desperately searching for signs 

to terrify, to find a thing 

He battens all the hatches down 

and wonders why he hears no sound 

Frantically searching his dreams 

he wonders what it's all about 

Safe to say that 

I don't think you understand! 

There's nowhere left to turn 

These walls keep breaking 

Time is like a leaf in the wind 

Either it's time well spent 

or time I've wasted... 

Photos 

Clearing my mind, 

losing my friends 

Fall on my face 

do it again. 

You say how, do, you do. 

Man, how 'bout you? 

Man, how 'bout you? 

To be sold 

To be killed 

To be so 

In my head, I'm alone 

Just like you, I've been tryin' 

To be scared 

In my bones, I feel cold. 

I give thanks to the lord in this tree 

In this street 

Let me be, I don't need 

To be here, I'm alone 

I don't think you understand! 

There's nowhere left to turn 

These walls keep breaking 

Time is like a leaf in the wind 

Either it's time well spent 

or time I've wasted... 

Don't waste it.
