No Man's Land - Kayak

I could never understand that silly show

Life is what they call it and some people know

Exactly where they’re going to and where it’s at What they want and even what they’re gonna get

When I try to match the ones that pull the strings

All I so is risk my neck and sell my skin

I’m feeling like an actor every word I say

Prompted by a madman in a rotten play

No man’s land, taking shelter from the eager crowd

No man’s land, where my mind needs to be leveled out

Here I see the madman’s silhouette

Standing out against the dream he’s had

No man’s land

Like oxygen I need my no man’s land

Prophets of the distant eye, your shallow din

Slowly turns the world into a lifesize ring

Where acrobats and jugglers can perform their tricks

Audience longing for more thrilling kicks

No man’s land, between the borders of our common past

No man’s land, beyond the longitudes of east and west

Like an outcast, rogue or refugee

Victimized by my own fantasy

No man’s land

The story’s ended nowhere — no man’s land
