If you take it wrong then time will stop
Wasted spaces move back up
Many days have rode on into one
Daily meals to calm your eyes
Wisdom seldom realized
I could try to reason one more time
But by the by, by the by
How fear has multiplied
Wild and lost within your state of mind
Oh my oh my, my oh my
How tears have multiplied
Drowned and lost within your state of mind
To the edge and round the bend
Stubborn 'til the bitter end
Hold on tight before this whole town blows
Get up get up and face the day
Don't let those hours slip away
Chasing time and talking hate again
But by the by, by the by
How fear has multiplied
Wild and lost within your state of mind
Oh my oh my, my oh my
How tears have multiplied
Drowned and lost within your state of mind
Your mind
Your mind
Your mind
Whistle out loud along this path
Mightier have fallen and have felt your wrath
Move along now let's not make a mess
Racing back to catch your breath
Just take the money and let's forget
Let's forget we ever knew your name
Oh by the by, by the by
How fear has multiplied
Wild and lost within your state of mind, mind, mind, mind
Oh my oh my, my oh my
How tears have multiplied
Oh drowned and lost within your state of mind
Oh drowned and lost within your state of mind
