Whose Authority - Nada Surf

I walk like you guide me, my eyes

Are shut like I’m blind

Turn to you and listening and tryin'

To be in your mind

There’s a feeling that I get

When I look to the west

Havin' all the answers

Still failing the test

Wolf packs and convoys and

Captains of men

Surprised in translation

World without end

Welcome back to real life

The picture is gone

Put a contract out on things that go on and on

How do you stay where

You most want to be?

Where’d you get the patience

Did it come easily?

Ahhhhhh

Ahhhhhh

Ahhhhhh

On whose authority

I have none over me

On whose authority

There’s none that I can see

On whose authority

I have none over me

On whose authority

No one speaks to me

On whose authority

I have none over me

Ahhhhhhh

All the tales and paper heroes

The ones who dyed the sun

And called it yellow

The ones who made you run

On whose authority

I have none over me

On whose authority

There’s none that I can see

On whose authority

I have none over me

On whose authority

None that' speaks to me

On whose authority

I have none over me

Ahhhhhhh
