The clouds, they are watching
Killing time, I suppose
All operating the devices
Inside our heads
What they want is the best for us, but we insist
That our lives are just slow moving fragile things
To keep us running on train time and move with ease
They push us forwards
No going backwards
No time to trace our steps and bruise our knees
Sell me a condo
I wanna buy it to impress
Those Californian men in loafers
Think I’m a mess
Well it’s a nice thought
To bottle our excuses
Put ‘em in a jar
And I can’t remember
The many times I tried
What they want is the best for us, but we insist
That our lives are just slow moving fragile things
To keep us running on train time and move with ease
They push us forwards
No going backwards
No time to trace our steps and bruise our knees
I know that there is
Something that I’m
Missing out on
Since my head’s been foggy
I guess that
That I try
To escape
The life that I’ve been living
And I wait
For those clouds
To come crashing down
Then I can
Can return
To the love
And the laughter
