Flying high in the wide sky of the nearly ended world Watching the poles part, washing the pain away One last time, for a lost Lang Syne Sailing free in the great sea of the nearly ended world Watch the waves waste, losing the last race Over-brained children of time Commotion born with an iron intent We're losing our touch ‘Cause we want it too much Men in black in the deep caves of the nearly ended world Watching the stones drift, hearing the past away One last noise, til chance destroys Shuffling sick in the sad streets of the nearly ended world Seeing the end faced, choked on a bad taste Over-brained children of time Commotion born with an iron intent We're losing our touch We want it so much We were explosions of light Spark showers born in the eye of it all We can't see it's time We're losing our shine And we've nearly ended our world With our big I ams and our best laid plans We've nearly ended our world Don't take it away; don't take it away from me now Watching the ways and the last halls of the nearly ended world Hearing the words said, doubting the spin again One last time, one last crime Escaping the blame in the fast lane of the nearly ended world I'll be keeping my head down, down, keeping it out the way Over-brained children of time Commotion born with an iron intent We're losing our touch We want it so much We were explosions of light Spark showers born in the eye of it all We can't see it's time We're losing our shine And we've nearly ended our world With our big I ams and our best laid plans We've nearly ended our world Gonna take it away, they're gonna take it away from me now Flying high in the wide sky of the nearly ended world Watching the poles part, wishing the pain away Sailing free in the great sea of the nearly ended world Watching the waves waste, losing the last race Men in black in the deep caves of the nearly ended world Watching the stones drift, hearing the past away Shuffling sick in the sad streets of the nearly ended world Seeing the end faced, choked on a bad taste With the best laid plans And the big I ams Watching the ways and the last halls of the nearly ended world Hearing the words said, I'm doubting the spin again Escaping the blame in the fast lane of the nearly ended world I'll be keeping me head down, I'm keeping it out the way Over-brained children of time Commotion born with an iron intent We're losing our touch We want it so much We were explosions of light Spark showers born in the eye of it all We can't see it's time We're losing our shine Every time and no time Any time you'd like to push the bu*ton, man Just go ahead and leave us in suspension Where we came from Anyway, every way and in no way Would I blame you for a moment of this time The last time Any time and some time And even when I'm feelin' optimistic I just run away and leave behind the worries And the heartaches Anyway, every way and in no way Could I ask you for a lifeline to the nearly ended world
