Track Lyrics
Riding to Work in the Year 2025 (Your Invisible Now) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
On some driven ship, the morning commuter ride
Everything is orange and bright
In reflection, you can see
You're standing paralyzed
Your suspended disbelief has lied
[Chorus]
Your invisible now, and I know that it's hard to get used to
'Cause you're the last secret agent reporting back
But you're reporting back to nothing
Your invisible now, and I know that it's hard to get used to
Your invisible now, and I know that it's hard to get used to
[Verse 2]
The panoramic scene, the landscape's grand design
The moment overtakes your life
In the silver morning sun
The worst is magnified
It makes you see the use of Christ
Thirty‐Five Thousand Feet of Despair Lyrics
[Verse]
Another moth disintegrates
Hovering in the beam of a searchlight
That's looking for a trace of a plane
Whose pilot it's a shame has gone insane
[Bridge]
You can see the silhouette
Across the moon
He hung himself mid-flight
In the bathroom
[Outro]
Why is it so high?
Why is it so much?
The Train Runs Over the Camel but Is Derailed by the Gnat Lyrics
4 ContributorsThe Train Runs Over the Camel But Is Derailed by the Gnat LyricsAs if to be some kind of test
Born out of the boredom of who's better than the rest
This time they wouldn't measure the pointless small details
The only thing that mattered was if the "you" prevailed
Maybe it's just some coincidence that natural selection always works the best
What if they didn't count the molecules that failed
And the only thing that mattered were the pieces that prevailed
How Will We Know? (Futuristic Crashendos) Lyrics
5 ContributorsHow Will We Know? (Futuristic Crashendos) LyricsHow will we know
If this rush of noise we're hearing
Is the world's biggest hammer
Coming down on our heads crushing our lives
And everything that we've said
Crushing the existence of any small effects we've had
Or is it just some super-sonic flux invented in the future
Blowing up so hard you can hear it before it happens
How will we know?
