There are no answers left
Only puzzles remain
Forcing themselves
Onto every page
And if I fix this
I can go home again
And I will leave behind
These questions that have carried me here
I see the problem in this peeling wall
For every crack hides a thousand more
I want to break from the grip that
My pen holds me in
I want to work it out and leave now
Before I am ruined
(I swear they’ve poisoned my meals)
[Chorus 2x]
I have never seen figures move like this
An endless string of numbers that refuse to fit
In the distance I hear them listening in
They have to be sure that some problems aren’t solved
For my own peace of mind lets not talk on this line
I want to break from the grip
That my pen holds me in
I want to work it out and leave now
Before I am ruined
(They can’t make me swallow)
[Chorus 2x]
I have never seen figures move like this
An endless string of numbers that refuse to fit
[Outro 2x]
I swear they’ve poisoned my meals
But they can’t make me swallow
Where there were once proofs there’s dust
Where there once was a person
A machine talks
A machine talks...
