After the Lie Lyrics by Tony Banks

Banks Vaults - The Albums 1979-1995

1979

For a while I could not lose this childhood spectre
I felt others saw it too
Now I notice a change in the way that people look at me
And how those people look to me
I see they're not so clever, I like them better for it too
And one still more
For now I see more clearly
Many things that passed me by
Like paul the visionary
I see things in a different light
For now I know what course to take
Now at last I find a meaning in scenes of life
That made no sense to me before
And the complicated structures of scientific knowledge
Once just mad, they seem so simple now
And one I've known since childhood, she has new meaning for me too
These things are good
For now I see more clearly
Many things that passed me by
Like paul the visionary
I see things in a different light
