Song Lyrics

Is there a pattern? Is there some sort of code?
It wasn't platinum if the brass underneath it showed
I should have seen it
The clues were under my nose
I could have reached it
If I stood on my tippy-toes

Have I breached upon my vows?
The timing is wrong; it's a bad situation
The bottom's dropping out
My exit is closing without explanation
Is there guidance in the clouds?
I'll keep my eyes on the prize till the amulet slips through my fingers
Keep my eyes on the prize till the amulet slips through my fingers

Was that a comet? or just a speck in my eye?
A ketchup clean-up? or just a bloody goodbye?
The road is unpaved
But there's no leeway to fail
Relay the message
The devil is in the details

Have I breached upon my vows?
The timing is wrong; it's a bad situation
The bottom's dropping out
My exit is closing without explanation
Is there guidance in the clouds?
I'll keep my eyes on the prize till the amulet slips through my fingers
Keep my eyes on the prize till the amulet slips through my fingers

I lost my patience in the back row
I climbed to see what's over the cliff
Can't you speak to me in ancient Greek or speak in Esperanto?
Do you have to speak to me in hieroglyphs?

Have I breached upon my vows?
The timing is wrong; it's a bad situation
The bottom's dropping out
My exit is closing without explanation
Are there diamonds in the clouds?
I guess my back's to the wall if the amulet slips through my fingers
I'll keep my eyes on the prize till the amulet slips through
Keep my eyes on the prize till the amulet slips through
The amulet slips through my fingers
