lyrics

This thing is moving fast as it climbs
"Can we slow down? can we slow? First I must know"
why were you trapped all this time?
(what is that I've let go?)
___

never mind the pace I make
this world has lost a chance to take
it's prize, it's all lies
while from under this building I cried:

"if we overthrow the impossible the yoke of form has got to go the mind isn't kind by design. "

I must finish the plan you can't understand
this world was misaligned by man
I dream as machine in the head instead we tread the place
I mean
to remake
the current state is a mistake
if they listened, my condition
would bring about remission

___

And I see it now
This is the way we all end
a plague that walks like a man
The end walks before me

"You mean us harm...
I can't let you leave here"
i don't know how to stop it
but I must try

____

ah, at last the light of day
i do believe now we part ways
I thank you for releasing me
I'll return the favor and set you free

have a safe trip I'll see you next fall
(you probably don't get that one at all)
it's been a blast but you don't understand
so I banish you now to the the heat and the sand
