Eddie Vedder - Sleight Of Hand lyrics

[Verse 1] Routine was the theme He'd wake up, wash and pour himself into uniform Something he hadn't imagined being As the merging traffic pa**ed He found himself staring down At his own hands Not remembering the change Not recalling the plan Was it? [Chorus] He was okay But wondering About wandering Was it age? By consequence? Or was he moved sleight of hand? [Verse 2] Mondays were made to fall Lost on a road he knew by heart It was like a book he read in his sleep, endlessly Sometimes he hid in his radio Watching others pull into their homes While he was drifting [Chorus] On a line Of his own Off the line Off the side By the by As dirt turned to sand As if moved by sleight of hand [Verse 3] When he reached the shore of his clip-on world He resurfaced to the norm Organized his few things, his coat and keys Any new realizations would have to wait Till he had more time More time [Chorus] A time to dream To himself He waves goodbye To himself I'll see you on the other side Another man moved by sleight of hand
