Room at the Top

Theres a tall man in the hallway
and he's walking towards me
word's getting around
about something I didn't even notice
I'm sensing a style of impending involvement
feeling like a target without getting attention

It's just below under the surface
just below under the surface

At the top of a league that's about to collapse
in the grip of something sinister that feels like a trap
so I'm standing in this building
with everyone that I dont know
and I sense there's something happening
but I have no control

It's just below under the surface
just below under the surface

The sound is never loud
but the whispering never stops
caught up in a conspiracy
from the room at the top
so I think about that summer
I thought I'd never see
and a cat walks down the hallway
and looks straight at me

Its just below under the surface
just below under the surface

(guitar solo)

On the verge of a miracle
we thought we'd never see
thiefs of thought are all around us
looking for Jerry Lee
investigators of dogs
dont think much of you and me
even Samsa and his armour
were crushed by the powers that be

Its just below under the surface
just below under the surface

It's just below in the city
just below in the countryside
just below in our city
just below it's in your signs
just below it's in the stars
just below it's in the cards
just below inside your mind
inside your mind
