Babyland — Startled By The Obvious

Текст песни: Startled By The Obvious

Startled By The Obvious LyricsIf we're all going to drown
Then it could be today
But I can't promise anything
As it all crashes down
Please
Let me feel this way forever
Stuck here, forever

With the end drawing near
We're still making lists
Still filling up
Still marking down all
To keep track of our emptiness
Held high
Keep me high
Get me to the finish line
To rest for the rest of everything
This is how it happens
This is how it slips away
This is how the compromise
Becomes a way of life

Too much to see
Too much to taste
Too much disease
Too much to face
Too much decline
Too much mistake
Too much undone
Too much at stake
Too much the same
Too much to hide
Too much too late
Too many seconds slipping by
Too many systems gone awry
The easy out
I want it all and I want it now

This is how it happens
This is how it slips away
This is how the compromise
Becomes a way of life
And this is how it feels to fall apart
Yeah this is how it feels to fall apart
Couldn't you see it?
It was shoved in your face
The answers are waiting
Yeah they finally came
A product of fear
But the product failed
Startled by the obvious
Not a moment to spare
