lyrics

We fear the echoes in the empty halls
The broken rules and all the minor falls
The highs and lows of love in syncopated time
The thought of ideas crossing borderlines

That little mystery of your broken heart
Just like an open secret right from the start
Each other’s stories get so intertwined
The ups and downs confused and ill-defined

We set ‘em up
To tear 'em down
Set a course for higher ground
We point our fingers
We scream and rage
We write it down
And turn the page

Repeat the message
Believe it’s true
Swear allegiance
To something new
We make the missiles
We drop the bombs
Don’t know the difference

We think we are the answer, the way back home
We even think we’re special when we’re alone
Well I don’t want to see us run and hide in shame
Another cul-de-sac and a different name

We set ‘em up
To tear 'em down
Set a course for higher ground
We point our fingers
We scream and rage
We write it down
And turn the page

Repeat the message
Believe it’s true
Swear allegiance
To something new
We make the missiles
We drop the bombs
Don’t know the difference

Red and green
And architecture and dance
Encouragement and sycophancy
Fact and intuition
Odd and even
Tears and rage
Luck and chance
And music and money
Art and artifice
And random and radical
Socio and psychopathic
And veiled threat and warning sign
Balances and bias
And vaseline and friction
Lust and attraction
And lies and authenticity
Love and infatuation
Interval and event
There and back again
Admission and denials
