Lyrics
Maintain
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.
Well I'm standing on the corner
Gonna jump out of my skin
Gonna float above the buildings
See which one your in
We can finally stop the traffic
We can finally stop the trains
We can act like we're above it
Till it starts to feel the same
Whatever you do
Whatever you do
And It's screaming from the payphones
And it's dripping from the trees
And it's moving through the pavement
Underneath your feet
See them diving from the bridge
In the city down below
Turn it all into a harddrive
And plug me in
I don't want to know
Whatever you do
Maintain
Maintain
It could never be this easy
But if she ever leaves me
I'll hit the ground
And it's so much
Nicer
Up here
We've got to maintain
