lyrics

The evidence has burned
Magnets to the tape
The darkness has crept up
To cover your face
Sliding backwards into stars
And then nothing
Collapses into place

So we try
To keep
Our heads above the water
But it gets so hard to breathe
Out here

Always falling backwards
Never find our feet
What the hell are we doing?
Empty cars on empty streets
Radio static bouncing around
And around and around
In our defeat

So we sing
And sigh
With rasping broken voices
Like antennas to the sky

Drowning our voices
Collapse in the sound
Lost in forever
Waiting to be found
We're up in the clouds
And there's no coming down
Lost in the crowd
But there's no one around

The racket boys are calling
The chicken man looks thin
Hiding in the rafters
Swallowing the sin
A little deviation
From the little task at hand
The making of a monster
The crowning of a man

We watch
As his crooked shadow cracks
A smile that chills your bones
But nobody else reacts
The lights are on but
You know nobodies home
