lyrics

It seems to be
We cannot see just what we are
The moving car already crashed out,
already gone up in flames
It’s sad to see
Just how high we can raise the bar
Every time we think we’ve maxed out
There is so much more we can lose

It’s so easy to try
But so easy to fail
While we’re living in this living hell

So scream as the madness fills the air
Attain the thousand mile stare
There’s still nothing for us anywhere

Well we’ve really dropped the ball now
Too stupid to ignore
The ringing of the door bell
They’ll always let you down
The prophets and the clowns
We’ve played into their hands

It’s so easy to be in here
With it out there
We’re just simply too meek to look at it in the eyes
While struggling to fill all of this dead time
Won’t some body tell us
Things will be alright

Because we’re starting to yearn
For the point of no return

There’s no way left for us to steer
The final stop off no where near
And not one thing remaining clear
Not one thing

It seems to be
It’s just what we are now
We’re no longer rational beings
It’s gone too far
We’ve grown the seed
That was already planted
The poisoned thorn has dug
It’s way down deep within

It’s so easy to try
But so easy to fail
While we’re so busy living in this living hell
There’s no asking why
And there’s no peering in
Won’t use our minds
Won’t use our eyes
Won’t see both sides

Just try, just once in your life
Try, oh won’t you
Try, oh won’t you try
just once before you die
It’s coming round
