Peter Gabriel – Perspective Lyrics  Share

From Peter Gabriel's album: Peter Gabriel 2

I need perspective, ^,cos I^,m facing the wall.
I need perspective, ^,cos I^,m not that tall.
I need perspective, heard the trumpet call.
Don^,t trust my eyes, want to know where things fall.

I need perspective, party time for the newly wed.
I need perspective, colors ran as the images bled.
I need perspective, like confetti on the flower bed.
Don^,t trust my eyes, priest crying he^,s got fire in his head.

[Chorus:]
Oh Gaia, if that^,s your name,
Treat you like dirt, but I don^,t want to blame.
Oh Gaia, the wind heals the fire and blows the ash away.

I need perspective, sitting in a long, long hall.
I need perspective, staring at the white, white wall.
I need perspective, waiting for the phone to call.
[ Perspective lyrics from
http://www.musiclyricsnow.net/p/peter-gabriel/perspective/ ]
Don^,t trust my eyes, there^,s one thing I^,ve got to tell you all.

I need perspective, to see through red, red skies.
I need perspective, to carry merchandise.
I need perspective, I don^,t trust my eyes.

[Chorus]

I used to be an industrial giant,
Sitting in a garden full of chemical plants.
Trying very hard to get you off my mind.
Acting like any man, taking you for all I can,
Just the same, the same as all my kind, so blind.

I need perspective.
