Lyrics: The American Life. Stereo Eyes.

Do you see me waving?
From the distance
And I wonder how it feels
As discomposure takes it's place
But I'd love to see your face
When you see what I'm waving
Now seated so safely in this crowd
And you know that I'm laughing
I'm laughing, because look who's cheering now

Your voice is calling out right now
But I don't hear a sound

I see you in stereo
You hear me in black and white
So here is the question
Is this the way you want your life?
Your life

Now it seems so easy
Just to walk away
So straight faced without saying a word
And you know it doesn't work that way
It never meant anything
I can see that you're hiding
You're hiding behind all of your lies
You're always wishing you had this
But you know it's not so simple now

I see you in stereo
You hear me in black and white
So here is the question
Is this the way you want your life?
Your life

And all this time you lived a lie
You cried out for a life
Where you know you could be yourself
And every day I walk the line
A line that you decide
Where giving in is giving up

I see you in stereo
You hear me in black and white
So here is the question
Is this the way you want your life?
Your life

I see you in stereo
I see you in stereo
I see you in stereo
Is this the way you want your life?
Your life
Black and white
