lyrics

caught at a standstill, torn to shreds all hope
the time is long overdue, i'm ready for intervention
so burn my river of tears and cover my face up
call up your best volunteers and get out of this place right now
[unused: i'm your problem now, so drink up and have another round
life is wasted gone for good, no heart to fight the mark of silicon]
you're not as smart as you think you are
i'm not as smart as i thought i was
we're not as smart as we want to be, so what
a certain specter still presides over everything i hide
distance of light is measured in time, it's been too long my love
so help me forget my fear and cover my face up
burn my river of tears, and get out of this place right now
you've got your halo, don't you think i know
i want your halo, don't you think i won't
turn back the clock 20 years so i can get it right
it's a stock car race and i'm grinding my gears
it's dark cause there's no light
burn my river of tears and cover my face up
call up your best volunteers and get out of this place right now
