You dropped the bomb using all your chlorine

You find yourself so far down its normal

There at your feet the slow burn comes

To carry back to earth or where you're from

You feed me whole varied nutrients

I lost control I trashed all my instinct

I wanted to escape to feel nothing at all

'Cause they were alive when you spoke to me

Broken the skies and my empathy

Mine out of time she wrote to me

Will we ever come again?

England is gone the way of the gypsies

We do what we can within the system

I hope you feel the earth turn inside of you

'Cause they were alive when you spoke to me

Broken the skies and my empathy

American eyes so close to me

Will we ever come again?

A heavy load and a fucked up system

You're on your own with all your instance

All you see is all you get

Surfing on the waves of promises

Mine out of time she wrote to me

American eyes so close to me

American eyes so close to me

American eyes

Will you ever come again?

Will you ever come again?

American eyes...
