This Phantom Life lyrics

I am a dancing bear You are a magazine We are a mess of holes Shaking from head to toe If we only knew the answers We could print 'em up onto tshirts We could sing for revolution We could fight all our wars and win them Or wile away the summer's day In a daydream, a daydream None of this can be bought None of this can be sold Safe in the frame we find But for the letting go You can hide your desperation From yourself and from your children But you cannot contain your terror Or your loss of poise and diction This phantom life Is cast aside At the moment We most need it
