I'm losing track of my convictions again We had this youth within ourselves, we let evaporate I'm losing track of my convictions again We had this youth within ourselves I'll rise from my ashes and sins Wild oats in a field of choices No strings attached whatsoever When tough times come, we all feel guilty And we compare our institutions No strings attached whatsoever It's a strange affair, systemic treason And we don't change our institutions I'm losing track of my convictions again We had this youth within ourselves I'll rise from my ashes and sins Wild oats in a field of choices Against the grain... Demonize me, but I am free My basic instincts are straining me They try to put me in a cage... but I'm vaporous All the rules we give ourselves Preconceived establishment I can't believe, they killed the thrill We're so reckless Our faith has been sealed for ages, we lie in pain Why are we so respectful We're standing still in the dark, for way too long No strings attached I'm losing track No strings attached whatsoever When tough times come, we all feel guilty And we compare our institutions No strings attached whatsoever It's a strange affair, systemic treason And we don't change our institutions No strings attached whatsoever It's a strange affair, systemic treason No strings attached whatsoever No strings attached
