All this progress So why am I Sitting on the sidelines Watching life ride by? All these changes But none are mine Oh, good times are all for me Somewhere down the line Ooh Progress All this progress And here am I Caught up in the orbits of A thousand satellites All these worthless Tears I cry Here comes my apocalypse Tearing through my blurred lines All this progress And I'm in chains While other folk are rolling 'round In their ill gotten gains All these changes Just keep me down Empires closing in on me Brick by brick Town by town Ooh Worthless Progress From the dustbowls into the Mountain high Hear the injured birds sing So why, oh why, can't I? Watching under branches That bend in the wind Leaning on the feeling that I'll fly away again In hopes that I could change the past In faces pressed against the glass I dream a dream, that's built to last Another word Another word Ooh Nothing moving Nothing moving Nothing moving
