There's a black hole pulling me in
|
I slowly bend till I see the back of my own sins
|
I stole my soul from myself now I wonder
|
|
Wonder - is there somebody with a perfect plan
|
That goes boom when it's stamped and we could understand
|
How the gods of old used to clap their hands to make thunder
|
|
So we're clapping and we're laughing like it was so absurd
|
In the future we'll be laughing at who we were right now
|
As man plays god with the land that he plunders
|
|
To the one unknown no one can know nor see
|
That's resistant to greed
|
If we listen to time after time, time can never go under
|
|
There's this vine trying to climb
|
Through the window into my life
|
I don't mind
|
I don't mind
|
I don't mind
|
There's this wine trying to find
|
Its way from the bottle into my mind
|
In my mind
|
In my mind
|
In my mind
|
|
And so this vine is trying to climb
|
Through the window into my life
|
To bring me symmetry
|
And memories of a backlit breeze
|
Back into a dream on the ground
|
Looking up at the sun coming down
|
|
Into a world of boys and girls
|
Are holding handheld devices
|
While they're eating and they're sleeping
|
And they're dreaming of the prices
|
We'll be paying down the line
|
When the ice melts maybe it will turn to wine
|
|
And all the greatest of the heroes started jumping from the books
|
They started wearing ones and zeros
|
Looking more and more like crooks
|
They stole the sunlight from the future
|
Took a sip, drained half the glass, and put it back
|
|
And a lot of people like to have a feast
|
Not so many could stomach the killing
|
Lot of traffic on the streets, so who's really doing all the drilling
|
Keep on filling what can never be full
|
My imagination has got a hold on me
|
|
There's this vine trying to climb
|
Through the window into my life
|
I don't mind
|
I don't mind
|
I don't mind
|
There's this wine trying to find
|
Its way from the bottle into my mind
|
In my mind
|
In my mind
|
In my mind
|
