lyrics

you know how it is when you're out walking
split seconds behind reality
catch impressions of the people talking
and you think "it's all about me"

missing things of interest 'cos you're not feeling
try not to see the friends who wave
and they just think all your thoughts must be reeling
so they leave you well alone

well I'm not going to go along with it this time
because I know that it makes no sense at all

we just end up with fruitless discussions
soul searching with no point at all
always bothered by the repercussions
tense waiting for a fall

still the words remain the same sad meanings
of what is yours and what is mine
they just get tired and we start off dreaming
'til we're running out of time

well I'm not going to go along with it this time
because I know that it makes no sense at all

I remember the excitement when The Sentinel was released having seen the band live a few times before. I loved the album but was aware that there were tracks missing and it had been rumoured that it was to be a double album. To hear all these takes and works in progress takes me right back to the 80's and the buzz of all the new prog that was coming out back then. This is an absolutely essential purchase for any Pallas fan. nuttinikki
