So Many Dynamos - The Formula lyrics

The faultline slipped, the faultline slipped, The faultline slipped and my knees keep shaking. The Arch collapsed, the Arch collapsed, But I still see its shadow cast over the river Keep your head from falling Keep your fragile chest from collapsing When it's finally said with conviction that the formula doesn't work. If the glaciers melt, the water will engulf ourselves, And every book on every shelf is invalid if the formula doesn't work: And the formula doesn't work. And the formula doesn't work. No, the formula doesn't work. And the formula doesn't work. Keep your hands together Keep your eyelids clenched so tightly With the backup plan: so flawless How can everything end like this? So here it is: When the lava burns our wives and kids We'll be certain the hypothesis is faulty If the formula doesn't work And the formula doesn't work. Mountains are big and they all look fake We'll be nothing but ashes in their wake Now we know that it's worse than we'd ever think We evolve, we adapt, or become extinct The clouds are epic and the sky is colossal But in a million years, we'll all just be fossils Mountains are big and they all look fake Evolution is such a hard habit to break It was heavy but it wasn't lethal It was sketchy but it wasn't illegal Glaciers will melt and the land will slide And we can say we tried, but The faultline slipped, the faultline slipped, The faultline slipped and my knees keep shaking The seismic waves, the seismic waves, Are crashing into the surface, breaking The plates collide, the plates collide, And we're all just fossils in the making The Arch collapsed, the Arch collapsed, But I still see its shadow cast over the river There's a place in the atmosphere Where the sound waves go that no one can hear Where the words you speak that no one should know Where'd you think that your prayers go? There's a place in the atmosphere Where the sound waves go when they disappear Where the words you speak that no one should know Where'd you think that your prayers go?
