lyrics

Blood in my ears I can hear my own heartbeat

They took the power from the people
And the people just watched
It was the fault of the people
And the people will rot
We’re not in the race
The people never had the power in the first place
While they empty the shelves
Watch the people begin to fight amongst ourselves
While they get on with what really matters
Before we’ve even noticed that our rights were scattered
Like ashes in the wind
And I can’t see an end

But I can hear my own heartbeat
Competing with a world that doesn’t think straight
All because we’ve stopped dying at the same rate
Between the noise of every other repeat
Blood in my ears I can hear my own heartbeat

This world is a car-crash with no-one surviving
And we’re still fighting over who was driving
I’m through, I’m done and I’m not the only one
As piece by piece we pick apart our own

It’s too much to take in right now
There’s an opinion in my pocket I’m afraid to take out
For all intents and purpose I’m now just a cow so milk me
Milk me ‘til I’m dry

I’d give the bones in my skeleton to take it back one notch
We are now so off course that I’m finding it harder to watch

It’s too much to take in right now
There’s an opinion in my pocket I’m afraid to take out
For all intents and purpose I’m now just a cow so milk me
Milk me ‘til I’m dry

I can hear my own heartbeat
Competing with a world that doesn’t think straight
All because we’ve stopped dying at the same rate
Between the noise of every other repeat
Blood in my ears I can hear my own heartbeat
