lyrics

This bus is cold, it reminds me of you
It rattles and shakes just like the chains of youth
And just like I always say I could have been
Just like you

But in the end I fell astray
Away from the curse of conformity
Just like I should
Just like you could
Would you go if you had the chance?

I'll pull apart
All the boundaries set in our stones
I'll never wait for you
Kneeling before nobody's throne
Inside the machine
Lie dark truths of a dehumanising routine
So I'll stand and watch you fall

This town is dead your hopes are too
At least that's what I can see
From all the things that you do
And I can see through
That transparent smile hiding the truth
The truth is we're turned to captivity
And even my wandering mind cannot stray
But I know I will overcome
Would you fight if you couldn't run?
Fight if you couldn't run?

I'll pull apart
All the boundaries set in our stones
I'll never wait for you
Kneeling before nobody's throne
Inside the machine
Lie dark truths of a dehumanising routine
So I'll stand and watch you fall
I'll stand and watch you fall
I'll stand and watch you fall
I'll stand and watch you fall
