They sent us into their machine

But that plane crashed into the sea

We float alone above the waves

Within a waterproof capsule

We never made it to Manchuria

(No one can choose, no one can decide their friends or families)

Instead we fell into the sea

(No one can choose, no one can decide their friends or families)

We float alone above the waves

(We stand outside ourselves, define ourselves)

Within a waterproof capsule

(Define ourselves by standing outside ourselves)

We never made it to Manchuria

(No one can choose, no one can decide their friends or families)

Instead we fell into the sea

(No one can choose, no one can decide their friends or families)

We'll stay up all night and watch "The Land Without Bread"

We'll stay up all night with "Manufacturing Consent"

We'll stay up all night, watch "Juliet of the Spirits"

We'll stay up, we'll stay up, we'll stay up, yeah

And don't say that we're not like them either (We fell into the sea)

Don't say that we're not like them either (We fell into the sea)

Don't say that we're not like her either (We fell into the sea)

Don't say that we're not like her either (Up inside that tree)
