James-Born of Frustration

[Lucky Seven]

I've always heard a little bit of this song whenever I saw the commercial for VH1 Classic's programming block "The Alternative", but I never found out what the song was or who sang it until like the week before last (maybe even later). Great tune.

LYRICS:

All this frustration
I cant meet all my desires
Strange conversation
Self-control has just expired
All an illusion
Only in my head you dont exist
Who are you fooling
Dont need a shrink but an exorcist

Show me the movie
Of who you are and where youre from
Born of frustration
Caught up in the webs youve spun
Wheres the confusion
A vision of what life is like
Show me the movie
That doesnt deal in black and white

Stop stop talking about whos to blame
When all that counts is how to change

All this frustration
All this frustration
Who put round eyes on a butterflys wings
All this frustration
All this frustration
Who gave the leopards spots and taught the birds to sing

Born of frustration
Born of frustration

Im living in the weirdest dream
Where nothing is the way it seems
Where no ones who they need to be
Where nothing seems that real to me
What can we build our lives upon
No wall of stone, no solid ground
The world is spinning endlessly
Were clinging to our own beliefs

Born of frustration
Born of frustration
