Far beyond the bounds of this life There would be a different future Some futures die Every cog lined up to make noise Damn it was a beautiful racket And now it's quiet That world machinery we were constructing Now it's idle Right before the start of what we planned was planned to end And now it's quiet Seventy-seven commissioners plucking their own cameras out I said good riddance We got nothing actionable, just fashionable Detach them all Now you turn to me Now you turn to me And in my defence I couldn't change a thing about the system Yeah it wasn't just me It was the system that did it to us And I would have changed something if I could have But there was no left turn It was the system behind the wheel I recognize a note in this drawer Scattering the memories in summary So close the door Leave me in the fort where I lie Heaven never wanted to get dirty And now it's quiet Now the doors are opening somewhere in the distance I can hear the metal scraping I can feel the heat intrude into the room And now it's quiet Every actor who was passing through was driving down a road They were bouncing in the air They were free Now you turn to me Now you turn to me And in my defence I couldn't change a thing about the system Yeah it wasn't just me It was the system that did it to us And I would have changed something if I could have But there was no left turn It was the system behind the wheel Scattering the memories Scattering the memories Now you turn to me Now you turn to me And in my defence I couldn't change a thing about the system Yeah it wasn't just me It was the system that did it to us And I would have changed something if I could have But there was no left turn It was the system behind the wheel

Want More 02:25
Any of you got love? Any of you want more? You're amazing when you're leaking it Anyone would think you're made of it And I have mostly shaped my life so that I could feel good It hasn't always gone my way, but I mostly feel fine I want the same for you If only you would take it from me softly Any of you got time? Everyone could use more If it weren't for death I'd get nothing done Every hour slips by Bye-bye And I have mostly shaped my life so that I could feel good It hasn't always gone my way, but I mostly feel fine I want the same for you If only you would take it from me softly And with curiosity

I can see you Settle down, settle down Loose colours flowering above your mouth Now we get to bleed through the border of your dream Past the line you once drew We're dancing ever faster round your light I wanted to show you something there Do you know what it means to see that sign right there? It could have taken another form if we weren't in this place Anything you're following, you know you can relate Variations on a theme, on a theme It's a revisionist take I can see that it's time to bleed through the border of your dream Everything we taught you is radiating brightly from your eyes I wanted to show you something there Do you know what it means to see that sign right there? It could have taken another form if we weren't in this place Anything you're following, you know you can relate I wanted to show you something there Do you know what it means to see that sign right there? It could have taken another form if we weren't in this place Anything you're following, you know you can relate

The things I hate Cos they block love I know them well Through self-examination And just because They're part of me I know it's my responsibility To cut them out One by one Piece by piece

Stop Running 04:12
Welcome to the era of the bleeding knuckle Repetition of the day in every hour Motion no more than a strong vibration We're chasing and we're chasing with no destination Do you think we're going back to where we came from? Memory's so warm but we were gone for so long Don't you realize that everything changes? I don't honestly believe what we knew's worth saving One day when we may stop running Could we have it better please? Our day in the sunshine is coming I see its reflection inside my dreams There's a possibility we end up somewhere Other than the where we would always target When we get tired, we have to hold on But what do we grasp with desperate hands to make ourselves go make ourselves? One day when we may stop running Could we have it better please? Our day in the sunshine is coming I see its reflection inside my dreams Don't go back, don't go back Weren't we leaving anyway? Weren't we leaving anyway? Don't go back, don't go back Weren't we leaving anyway? Weren't we leaving anyway? Don't go back, don't go back Weren't we leaving anyway? Weren't we leaving anyway? Don't go back, don't go back Weren't we leaving anyway? Weren't we leaving anyway? One day when we may stop running Could we have it better please? Our day in the sunshine is coming I see its reflection inside my dreams Don't go back, don't go back Weren't we leaving anyway? Weren't we leaving anyway?
