Bartolomeo and the Buzzing of Bees Songtext

von Ted Leo and the Pharmacists

I know I've been distant
But I feel the change coming on
I know I've been resistant
But I feel the change, way too strong

You've fought all their wars
And you've worked for every boss
You've traveled over country
And you've been home and you've been lost

I know I've been missing
But I feel the change we've been waiting on
I know I've been resistant
But I feel the change, way too strong

You've paid and you've been paid
But at what pains, just to belong?
You've played but have you been played by
This game all along?

I know I've been distant
But I feel the change coming on
I know I've been resistant
But I feel the change, way too strong

Arguments, question
Our struggles and lessons
But do you feel smiled on
By your past and present?

I still believe in the futures unwritten
Living and dying like a damned human being
Believe in the buzzing of bees around me
We'll get on

What pain has been nagging on our brains
And turning us wrong?
What weight had been dragging on
Our train for oh so long?

See, I've broken down the doors
And found naught but dust and stones for our graves
We've spoken 'round it all
But now I trust we can carry the day

'Cause I know I've been missing
But I feel the change coming on
I know I've been resistant
But I feel the change, we've been waiting on

I know I've been distant
But I feel the change coming on
I know I've been resistant
But I feel the change, we've been waiting on

And I feel the change, we've been waiting on
And I feel the change, we've been waiting on
