Lyrics

VERSE: I'm so tired of all this talk and all these answers you think you've found
And the circles that you walk and your claims that we're gaining ground
But I still stop every time you start to explain the way things go
You've been talking for so long I forget that you don't know
But you don't know

VERSE: You don't know what's in your head cause you can't find it in your brain
And you don't know what's in your heart deep inside your private pain
From the fingers on your hand to the questions in your soul
Is a distance you can't span and a course you can't control
You can't control

VERSE: All your figures run away once you've freed them from your hands
Your calculations save the day by destroying what was planned
You believe the things you see and you see just what you believe
And there's no escape from that melody and from the chorus no reprieve
No reprieve

VERSE: I've been captured by your words and all the liberties you take
By the promises you keep by the power of your mistakes
But now I see just what you've done the situations you've put me in
I've been losing for so long and pretending that I win
That I win

BRIDGE: There'll be new days when all your bones have turned to dust
And new ways when all your stainless laws are rusted
And more time than you can count on your machines
And there'll be new rhymes and we could never know what they'll mean
