Whales In Cubicles - Across America lyrics

Are you still wondering why No one has yet saved you? No one to come show you round the building The four corners of the room And how can that be? 6.2 billion possibilities All from the womb of a woman Father and son Do you get the irony? Wondering when When does the journey end? And when the end does come Does it come suddenly? We never made it to the sea And now the river runs so thin Time is a friend and a thief It steals every second that you breathe OK We were driving down the highway wearing nothing but self pity As we cut across America in the Emerald city The sky opened up I thought it stole my secrets It was there at the corner of every street I was slow to surrender but I felt it in my feet Put my face to the water ran into the water and say Say "Were we only born to die?" Welcome to the huddled ma**es Isn't this the life you wanted? [repeat]
