One Man's Hell - Sad Lovers

Your feet are firmly on the ground

You run on rails of steel

You search for me and I am found

Tilting at windmills

The pressure to conform is so intense

Why must I bow down to common sense

One man's hell is another man's heaven on earth

What do you see that makes you feel so free

One man's hell is another man's heaven on earth

I can't believe that this is all my world will ever be

I'm sand in the machinery

I'm sugar in the fuel

But your sublime viscosity

Is oil for the engine

I'd like to blow this metal box apart

But it's been so long I don't know where to start

One man's hell is another man's heaven on earth

What do you see that makes you feel so free

One man's hell is another man's heaven on earth

I can't believe that this is all my world will ever be

And I tell myself

As the years are rushing past

This is not my dream

And the pain won't last

And I shout my name from the window

But the world cannot hear

I must confess to nothing less

Than feeling rather used

They say that we're all laughing now

Living on plastic

Don't tell me only losers feel the pace

Everyone gets beaten in this race

One man's hell is another man's heaven on earth

What do you see that makes you feel so free

One man's hell is another man's heaven on earth

I can't believe that this is all my world will ever be
