Everything you need has been granted 
circumstances beyond your control 
All the precious seed that you planted 
It's everywhere but its too hot to hold

I'm going back to the place where you landed
I am a pilgrim come in from the cold
You only did what your conscience demanded
You spun me out but I came when you called
You said "It's only a game
I'm only looking for someone to blame"

Everybody knows
You don't have to explain cos' it shows 
I heard you cry wolf too many times

The deadly avalanche that you started 
Rolling thunder of wasted applause 
All your ships have gone down or departed 
sacrificed in the name of the cause 
I'm not the kind who can show you 
But I'm beginning to know you

Everybody knows 
you don't have to explain cos' it shows 
I heard you cry wolf too many times 
I know how it feels
I know how it goes ...

Everybody knows
You don't have to explain cos' it shows
I heard you cry wolf too many times
I know how it feels
That's just how it goes
