Lyrics
Resolution road

Who’s your friend and who’s your foe?

How do you tell the one from the other?

Who’s on the inside, who’s undercover?

Who looks like you do?

Resolution road

Round and round and round we go

Who makes the circle and who’s in the middle?

Who talks in reasons and who talks in riddles?

Who looks like you do?



CHORUS

Don’t speak without thinking

Don’t sleep with a stranger when you’re drinking

And don’t jump in a ship when it’s sinking



Resolution road

Learn to speak your heart in code

Try to embody the laws of encryption

And try to defy all the laws of description

Who looks like you do?



Resolution road

Buy a ticket for the show

Who talks in riddles, who talks in reasons?

What kind of endings do you believe in?

Who looks like you do?



CHORUS X 2



Resolution road

Who’s your friend and who’s your foe?

How do you tell the one from the other?

Who’s on the inside, who’s undercover?

Who’ll be your Lazarus? Who’ll be your lover?

Who looks like you do?

Who looks like you do?

Who looks like you do?

I have been desperate for someone to vid THIS SONG for about a decade!

And I'm so glad it's this good. This is marvelous, and it makes me want to watch the movie, which I never did.

So well edited, such a great use of clips and lyrics, all the uncertain allegiances, and the great emphasis on Pitt & Redford's resemblance. Great job.

I know you've been waiting for a decade, because you gave me the song that long ago, and I promised you I'd vid it! You know, I can't help it that it took me a decade, what do you want from me. *g* Thank you for the lovely comments. (You should totally see the movie, and then you will know how completely perfect the song is for it.)

HAH!

You know, I know I gave you the song because it was on one of the Geekfest cds, but I have no recollection of your promise. But that's OK, because it's awesome.

And yes, I will definitely watch the movie.

Brilliant vid, you!
