Countdown

Nineteen, living in a dreamer's town
My seams came loose, began falling out
I meant what I thought when I left home
I talked your talk I crawled my way out

Confession I gave into the devil's words
They sang, "son, we could build a better world."
I signed the paper
I fell all over their honest tone, their ancient timbre

Imagine breathing in a simpler time
Car lots flooded with dancing and careless rhymes
Now I've grown older, I've joined the plan
Let's stop the clocks and start the countdown

That sensation when your life's another lie
Damnation feels like a better time
We ate your pills, we kept our noses clean

We surf along in time
Symbiosis to unwind
Your system reads my mind
God bless these bloodshot eyes

Those screams coming from the bleak outdoors
The trees, black, don't grow fruit anymore
I watched the bombs drop, scorch the sand
I found myself a promised land

We surf along in time
Symbiosis to unwind
These cables are my kind
God bless these bloodshot eyes

We surf along in time
Symbiosis to unwind
Your system reads my mind
God bless these bloodshot eyes
