Lyrics
Ludens
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Some resist the future, some refuse the past
Either way, it's messed up if we can't unplug the fact
That a world covered in cables was never wired to last
So don't act so surprised when the program starts to crash
How do I form a connection when we can't even shake hands?
You're like a phantom greeting me
We plot in the shadows, hang out in the gallows
Stuck in a loop for eternity
Do you know why the flowers never bloom?
Will you retry or let the pain resume?
I need a new leader, we need a new luden
(A new luden, new luden, yeah)
So come outside, it's time to see the tide
It's out of sight but never out of mind
I need a new leader, we need a new luden
Sticks and stones may break my bones, but soon the sting will pass
But names can dig so many graves you won't know where to stand
And I don't feel secure no more unless I'm being followed
And the only way to hide myself is to give 'em one hell of a show
How do I form a connection when we can't even shake hands?
You're like a phantom greeting me
We plot in the shadows, hang out in the gallows
Stuck in a loop for eternity
Do you know why the flowers never bloom?
Will you retry or let the pain resume?
I need a new leader, we need a new luden
(A new luden, new luden, yeah)
So come outside, it's time to see the tide
It's out of sight but never out of mind
I need a new leader, we need a new luden
(A new luden, new luden, yeah)
A new leader, new luden, yeah
A new leader, new luden, yeah
A new leader, new luden, yeah
Yeah
Alright, you call this a connection?
You call this a connection?
You call this a connection? Okay
You call this a connection?
Oh, give me a break
Oh, give me a break
Oh, give me a break, okay
Ugh, oh
Do you know why the flowers never bloom?
Will you retry or let the pain resume?
I need a new leader, we need a new luden
(A new luden, new luden, yeah)
So come outside, it's time to see the tide
It's out of sight but never out of mind
I need a new leader, we need a new luden
(A new luden, new luden, yeah)
A new leader, new luden, yeah
A new leader, new luden, yeah
A new leader, new luden, yeah
Do you know why the flowers never bloom?
Will you retry or let the pain resume?
I need a new leader, we need a new luden
