Flame
I don't want to go to the flame
See how terribly this needs to change?
I saw the Übermensche in old Green Park
His long strides I sighed when he caught my eye he tried to run me down
and the lambs laid all around
Across the western deserts
We built these great grey cities
We moved to towers of ivory
with a view that looks to nothing
We lie awake at bedtime
We fall asleep in sunshine
When the sky was clear were you grounded?
Did you know what your plot was about?
It took the men on horses years just to get to them
Move slow and we won't go to the flame
Foresee how terribly this needs to change
I saw the analysts in their tall glass monuments
They target my group using spreadsheets and stats
they steal our ideas and they sell them back
Across the western deserts
We built these great grey cities
We throw seeds from the turret
in lofty hopes that they will flourish
We lie awake at bedtime
We fall asleep in sunshine
But when the sky was clear were you grounded?
Did you know what your plot was about?
Are you living in a warehouse?
Or a palace you just can't see out?
It took the men on horses years just to get to them
See how terribly this needs to change?
I saw the Übermensche in old Green Park
His long strides I sighed when he caught my eye he tried to run me down
and the lambs laid all around
Across the western deserts
We built these great grey cities
We moved to towers of ivory
with a view that looks to nothing
We lie awake at bedtime
We fall asleep in sunshine
When the sky was clear were you grounded?
Did you know what your plot was about?
It took the men on horses years just to get to them
Move slow and we won't go to the flame
Foresee how terribly this needs to change
I saw the analysts in their tall glass monuments
They target my group using spreadsheets and stats
they steal our ideas and they sell them back
Across the western deserts
We built these great grey cities
We throw seeds from the turret
in lofty hopes that they will flourish
We lie awake at bedtime
We fall asleep in sunshine
But when the sky was clear were you grounded?
Did you know what your plot was about?
Are you living in a warehouse?
Or a palace you just can't see out?
It took the men on horses years just to get to them
