Lyrics

[00:14.50] The horizon has been defeated
[00:17.05] by the pirates of the new age
[00:19.73]
[00:20.30] alien casinos
[00:22.37]
[00:22.94] well maybe it's just time to say
[00:25.93] things can go bad
[00:27.76]
[00:28.73] and make you want to run away
[00:31.06]
[00:31.57] but as we grow older
[00:33.46]
[00:34.28] the troubles just seems to stay
[00:38.09]
[00:41.74] future complications
[00:43.67]
[00:44.28] in the strings between the cans
[00:46.41]
[00:47.23] but no prints can come from fingers
[00:49.93] if machines become our hands
[00:52.11]
[00:52.62] and then our feet become the wheels
[00:55.47] and then the wheels become the cars
[00:57.90]
[00:58.41] and then the rigs begin to drill
[01:00.95] until the drilling goes too far
[01:05.57]
[01:08.94] things can go bad
[01:10.97] and make you want to run away
[01:13.66]
[01:14.37] but as we grow older
[01:16.15]
[01:17.22] the horizon begins to fade away
[01:21.97]
[01:30.18] thingamajigsaw puzzled
[01:32.96] anger don't you step too close
[01:35.35]
[01:35.96] because people are lonely and only
[01:38.04] animals with fancy shoes
[01:40.53]
[01:41.70] hallelujah zig zag nothing
[01:43.93]
[01:44.50] misery it's on the loose
[01:46.42]
[01:47.24] because people are lonely and only
[01:49.42] animals with too many tools
[01:51.41] that can build all the junk that we sell
[01:54.48] sometimes it makes you want to yell
[01:57.63] things can go bad
[01:59.09]
[02:00.22] and make you want to run away
[02:02.09]
[02:03.06] but as we grow older
[02:04.88]
[02:05.75] the horizon begins to fade away
