[Verse 1]

I would swear I'd never plan again

But I can see the irony

I'm humbled by the passing of time

I am brought down onto my knees

An Arizona half and half

A half a pack of cigarettes

A vacant lot, my tangled thoughts

Suburbia give me my God again


[Pre-Chorus]

All senses say, nothing has changed

The soft lines from the streetlights fall the same on my face


[Chorus]

But something massive happened here

I can feel it in the atmosphere

Something false that once was true

I no longer revolve around you

I no longer revolve around you


[Verse 2]

And the house still stands where it was built

I know 'cause I drove by tonight

A candle in the bedroom

Where I once performed a holy rite

And I did stop to hang my head

Just for a moment at the light

'Cause now the altar is a bed

And now you're just a friend that once was mine


[Pre-Chorus]

Oh civilian, idling along

How can you understand that there's a whole world gone wrong?


[Chorus]

But something massive happened here

Can you feel it in the atmosphere?

Something false that once was true

I no longer revolve around you

I no longer revolve around you


[Bridge]

How can I try to be civilized

When inside there is a shift in paradigm

And everything we built, we built on our love

Everything spinning on one assumption

How can I try to say sorry

When my words don't carry the same gravity

And everything I say, I say it knowing

Full well you still don't want to believe


[Chorus]

Something massive happened here

But you can feel it in the atmosphere

Something false that once was true

I no longer revolve around you

Something massive happened here

But you can feel it in the atmosphere

Something false that once was true

I no longer revolve around you

I no longer revolve around you
