lyrics

I can only stay so long
Cannot see the end of the building
I grew up on the phone
I can feel the people around me

Light breaks the spaces in between
who we are when we are alone
Catch me out in the rain and the cold
No one's looking up to see you fall

Load the gun
Bang of drums
Praise the sun
Battles won

Our bodies wasted
Begin again
Create the others
I can see the end of the future
Working the wasteland
inside our skins
Room for another
I can feel the people around me

You steal, but don't care to offer anything to me
Just dig for free
Take no responsibility
