I shake through the wreckage for signs of life

Scrolling through the paragraphs

Clicking through the photographs

Who are you, what are you living for?

Tooth for tooth

Maybe we'll go one more

This life

Is lived in perfect symmetry

What I do, that will be done to me

I wish I could make sense of what we do

Burning down the capitals

Wisest of the animals

Who are you, what are you fighting for?

Holy truth, brother I choose this mortal life

Lived in perfect symmetry

What I do, that will be done to me

As the needle

Slips into the run out groove

Love, maybe you feel it too

And maybe you find life is unkind

And over so soon

There is no golden gate

There's no heaven waiting for you

Oh, boy you oughta leave this town

Get out while you can

The meter's running out

The voices in the streets you love

Everything is better when you hear that shout

Spineless dreamers hide in churches

Pieces of pieces of rush-hour, buses

I dream in emails, worn-out phrases

Mile after mile of just empty pages

Wrap yourself around me

Wrap yourself around me

As the needle

Slips into the run out groove

Maybe you'll feel it too

Maybe you'll feel it too

Maybe you'll feel it too

(Spineless dreamers hide in churches)

Maybe you'll feel it too

(Pieces of pieces of rush-hour, buses)

I dream in emails, worn-out phrases

Mile after mile of just empty pages
