Where did your ideas go?

One shadow after another

Get your picture on the cover

Regurgitate what’s run its course

Twist it round and call it yours

No expression and no emotion

Will you look back and be proud?

Where did your ideas go?

Is there nothing to find outside the box anymore?

Do you only go as far as you know?

How do you

Expect to gain

Momentum when

The bar’s your aim

And it’s reaching a whole new low

The few and the far between

Keep my dreams alive because

They paint a picture of a scene

Give something to believe

Of the way that it once was

The way it should be

Why have what’s shoved

Down into your throat when

You can find something that’s just for you

Something unique

Where did your ideas go?

Is there nothing to find outside the box anymore?

Do you only go as far as you know?

How do you

Expect to gain

Momentum when

The bar’s your aim

And it’s reaching a whole new low

Once the leeches let go we’ll raise our own

Keeping in touch with the solar plexus

Charges the light bulbs above our necks as

Wax drips down your smile

You were dimly lit for a little while

Now everything I hear

Is empty to my ears

Has the world lost its voice?

Filter out the noise

Where did your ideas go?

Where did your ideas go?

Is there nothing to find outside the box anymore?

Do you only go as far as you know?

How the fuck do you

Expect to gain

Momentum when

You all sound the same

And it’s reaching a whole new low

Has the world lost its voice?

Filter out the noise
