I see the world for what it is
I have no lens or biases
I know it all, I'm so well read
I memorized what Chomsky said, alright
I've been around, I've been to school
I look so sharp, I've seen it all
I sit in the back of lecture halls
So nonchalant about it all
But yesterday I heard a sound
It tore my mother system down
A wild siren pierced my limbs
And drained me of my bones
And as a group of fireflies
Just flickers here before my eyes
The pressure just keeps rising and
I think I'm gonna blow
Say something!
We are stars and we are shining into outer space
Sirens in our ears spin round, go oh-oh-oh
Wendy wake the children
Let them see that it's a dream
Momma took the baby and I know
But who's to say I really care
If skeletons are in the air?
I've got no target, I just stare
Every day I read the news
I see the lines and I get the blues
But now I can't go on
Because I've got no soul
And all I hear is the siren's call
(repeat chorus)
