Soma is what they would take when
Hard times opened their eyes
Saw pain in a new way
High stakes for a few names
Racing against sunbeams
Losing against fig dreams
In your eyes
And I am
Stop
And go
In your eyes
Said I am
Stop
And go
In your eyes
Let's go
When I saw her for the first time
Lips moved as her eyes closed
Heard something in his voice
"And I'll be there," he says
Then he walks out
Somehow he was trying too hard
To be like them
Well I am
Stop
And go
In your eyes
And I am
Stop
Oh, darling let me go
Tried it once and they liked it
Then tried to hide it
Says, "I've been doing this twenty-five years"
Well I'm not listening no more
And these friends, they keep asking for more
Oh yeah, oh but that's it
