lyrics

Don’t you understand
Like the brains before
You caught it with your hand
And stopped to lock the door
And I remember when
Before I was born
Before the towers fell
Before they pulled the cord

You’re waiting on the rocks
So tell me, who's the fool?
And who's the one who knocks?
And which camp is most cool?

The Love has made us deaf
The Love will make us blind
It's all in white and black
And I caught you turning back

Now you're waiting on the hooks, your fellowship
Won’t you tell me, who's the crook? Who's getting it?
Who's that on the screen?
Who's that being mean?

Well the water's up, and you think we should go it alone
If we powered off, we would never know how to get home
Such a crawling feels like a tide rising up on the sand
It’s a tricky state where The Love is the law of the land
Where The Love is the law of the land

Is this our final life, in plasticine?
And we’re drowning in the new amphetamine
Every culture clean
Everyone is clean...
Clean...
Clean...
Clean...
